The fragmentation pathways of protonated peptides are reviewed in the present paper
paying special attention to classification of the known fragmentation channels into a simple …

Protein identification and peptide sequencing by tandem mass spectrometry requires
knowledge of how peptides fragment in the gas phase, specifically which bonds are broken …

Relative energetics of fragmentation of protonated peptides are investigated by using
electrospray ionization/surface-induced dissociation (ESI/SID) tandem mass spectrometry …

The methods of establishing gas‐phase basicities and proton affinities are reviewed,
particularly as applied to thermally labile and involatile molecules. The literature on the …

The influence of acid− base interactions on the gas-phase dissociation of a series of
protonated peptides was investigated. Peptides containing both acidic residues [aspartic …

The utility of surface‐induced dissociation (SID) to probe the structure, energetics and
fragmentation mechanisms of protonated peptides is discussed and demonstrated. High …

The recent development of electrospray ionization (ESI) 1 and matrix-assisted laser
desorption ionization (MALDI) 2 sources for creation of macromolecular ions has brought …

The constant development of computer systems and infrastructure has allowed
computational chemistry to become an important component of environmental chemistry …

The gas-phase structures of the protonated pentapeptide Leu-enkephalin and its main
collision-induced dissociation (CID) product ions, b 4 and a 4, are investigated by means of …

A review with over 100 references describes the recent applications of ion‐molecule
reactions to the study of gas‐phase protonated peptides and proteins. The topic is focused …
