An online biosensor-electrospray-mass spectroemtry interface has been developed for the direct structural identification and
affinity quantification of biomolecular ligand interactions, such as polypeptide-antigen- antibody. The interface, described here for an SAW-biosensor, is equally
feasble with other biosensors, such as QCM or SPR.
On-line bioaffinity-electrospray mass spectrometry for simultaneous detection,
identification, and quantification of protein-ligand interactions.

Elucidation of O-Glycosylation Structures of the Aß-Amyloid Precursor
Protein by Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry Using
Electron Transfer Dissociation and Collision Induced Dissociation
(Perdivara I. et al., J. Proteome Res
8 (2) 631-642
Three specific O-glycosylation sites of the secreted APP695 (sAPP695)
produced in CHO cells have been identified using a combination of high-performance liquid
chromatography and electrospray-tandem mass spectrometry,
with electron transfer
dissociation and collision induced dissociation (ETD and CID).
The glycosylations comprise multiple short glycans, containing N-acetyl galactosamine (GalNAc),
Gal-GalNAc and sialic acid terminated structures.
The combination of the CID and ETD techniques in LC-MS is shown as a powerful
tool for de novo identification of O-glycosylations at unknown modification
sites in proteins.
