Dissociation of intact Escherichia coli ribosomes in a mass spectrometer. Evidence for conformational change in a ribosome elongation factor G complex.

We used mass spectrometry to identify proteins that are released in the gas phase from Escherichia coli ribosomes in response to a range of different solution conditions and cofactor binding. From solution at neutral pH the spectra are dominated by just 4 of the 54 ribosomal proteins (L7/L12, L11, a...
