ECD FT-ICR/MS is a type of mass spectroscopy that is equipped with Electron Capture Dissociation as a source of ionization and Fourier Transform-Ion Cyclotron Resonance as a mass filter/analyzer. To identify the sites of post-translational modifications of a given protein, different analytical tools can be employed …
During purification, it is necessary to determine the concentration of proteins in the crude extract as well as in purified fractions. There are different methods to determine the concentration of proteins, but the only accurate method to determine the protein concentration is to hydrolyze the protein …
A team of brain researchers found a specialized molecular imaging tool while working on targeting a cellular process involved in neurodegeneration and cognitive dysfunction. This molecular imaging tool performs its job by binding to the transporter of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, a mediator of the central nervous system. …
