ECD for the Masses Luncheon

Thanks to everyone who joined us for our first ever ExD for Thermo Scientific Q Exactive Orbitrap MS user meeting. Especially to our speakers, for the time and effort put into delivering fantastic presentations, and to our co-host, Zef Scientific!

Talks covered a range of topics, including the application of ExD on the UHMR platform for de novo antibody sequencing, membrane protein characterization, and advancing native methods for structural characterization with hybrid ExD-SID technology. Thanks to an expert, engaged audience, we enjoyed an active discussion of what technological and software advancements are most needed in the fields of top-down and native mass spectrometry.

Joseph Meeuwsen from e-MSion demonstrated targeted, top-down analysis with our ExDViewer software, fielding good questions and suggestions for improvement from the group. ExDViewer is available in beta – contact betatesting@e-msion.com for access.

If you were unable to attend, check out the presentation recordings and slides below!

ExDViewer Demo File: Native Carbonic Anhydrase

Instrument: Thermo Scientific Q Exactive Orbitrap
Summary: 57% sequence coverage of native carbonic anhydrase using EcHCD (ECD with 40 eV/q of HCD collision energy added).

ExDViewer Demo File: Native NISTmAb Light Chain

Instrument: Thermo Scientific Q Exactive Orbitrap
Summary: Native, top-down characterization of intact NISTmAb. ECD yields disulfide bond cleavage to liberate the light chain as well as sequencing of CDR3 regions.
