More accurate protein quantification Multiplexed analysis using isobaric mass tags such as TMT™ reagents or iTRAQ® reagents is a powerful tool, enabling quantitative comparison of protein abundances across time, conditions, tissues, subcellular locations, or other experimental variables. In conventional mass tagging experiments, reporter ions are generated at the MS2 stage. However, in complex samples, co-isolation of isobaric background peptides distorts reporter ion ratios, yielding inaccurate quantitation and masking subtle but biologically significant changes in abundance. • Goal: •...

Simple, reliable ETD enhances characterization of complex PTMs Electron-transfer dissociation (ETD) is a powerful complement to CID and HCD for the analysis of proteins. It cleaves primarily along the peptide backbone, generating c and z ions, often with increased fragment coverage compared to b and y ions that dominate CID spectra. ETD leaves side chains and modifications largely intact, making it particularly useful when analyzing post-translationally modified proteins. The optional Thermo Scientific™ EASY-ETD™ ion source, designed specifically for the Orbitrap Fusion MS, is robust, easy...

Multiple fragmentation types provide exceptional sequence coverage for top-down analyses The Orbitrap Fusion MS has the high resolution and accurate mass necessary to fully resolve monoclonal antibody heavy and light chains, as well as to accurately assign the complex fragmentation spectra generated from top-down experiments on large species. To maximize fragmentation for sequence characterization, proteins can be analyzed using a combination of fragmentation types including CID, HCD, ETD, and EThcD which provide complementary information. More complex experiments such as MSn analyses using...
