Ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (IMS-MS) determines momentum transfer cross sections of ions to elucidate their structures. Recent IMS methods employ electrodynamic fields or nonstationary buffer gases separate ions. These require a calibration procedure determine ion mobilities from the experimental data. This applies in particular trapped (TIMS), novel method with reported high resolving powers. Here, we report first systematic assessment accuracy and limitations TIMS. Our data...
Abstract Transcriptionally active ESR1 fusions (ESR1-TAF) are a potent cause of breast cancer endocrine therapy (ET) resistance. ESR1-TAFs not directly druggable because the C-terminal estrogen/anti-estrogen–binding domain is replaced with translocated in-frame partner gene sequences that confer constitutive transactivation. To discover alternative treatments, mass spectrometry (MS)–based kinase inhibitor pulldown assay (KIPA) was deployed to identify kinases upregulated by diverse...
Structure elucidation by ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry methods is based on the comparison of an experimentally measured momentum transfer cross-section to cross-sections calculated for model structures. Thus, it imperative that must be accurate. However, not fully understood how important accurately charge distribution analyte when calculating cross-sections. Here, we calculate and compare carbon clusters differ in mass, state, mode distribution, vary temperature polarizability...
Here we report the design, implementation, and initial use of an asymmetric steady-state continuous dual-nanospray ion source. This new source design consists two independently controlled continuously operating nanospray interfaces with funnel shaped counter electrodes. A mixing region combines ions from sources into a single beam in intermediate after extraction but before bulk pressure gradient vacuum interface. With this have achieved robust no loss duty cycle remarkable ionization...
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) constitutes 10%-15% of all tumors. The current standard care is multiagent chemotherapy, which effective in only a subset patients. original objective this study was to deploy mass spectrometry (MS)-based kinase inhibitor pulldown assay (KIPA) identify kinases elevated non-pCR (pathologic complete response) cases for therapeutic targeting. Frozen optimal cutting temperature compound-embedded core needle biopsies were obtained from 43 patients with TNBC...

ABSTRACT Transcription factor EB (TFEB) is a master regulator of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy that plays key role in the regulation cellular clearance pathways. TFEB regulated via complex array post-translational modifications (PTMs), but exact molecular mechanism regulates stability has remained elusive. Here, we show levels are critically by defined phosphorylation-ubiquitination cascade. A human kinome screen identifies IKK (inhibitor κB kinase) as modifier, combination...
