Structural mass spectrometry (MS3D) offers various methodologies for characterisation of protein structure. The Institute of Biotechnology/Centre of Molecular Structure (IBT/CMS) at BIOCEV offers different labelling approaches including hydrogen/deuterium exchange, covalent labelling, chemical cross-linking and limited proteolysis. The facility is equipped with cutting-edge technologies including high-resolution mass spectrometer, HPLC system, H/D system and in-house software for data processing.
The service provided includes data processing and reporting ready for publication. The platform also offers: identification and quantification of proteins, precise determination of protein molecular mass, and characterisation of various post translational modifications.
