Adding Color to Mass Spectra of Biopolymers: Charge Determination Analysis (CHARDA) Assigns Charge State to Every Ion Peak

Yury Tsybin, Laure Menin, Anton Kozhinov, Natalia Gasilova, Konstantin Nagornov

Traditionally, mass spectrometry (MS) output is the ion abundance plotted versus the ionic mass-to-charge ratio m/z. While employing only commercially available equipment, Charge Determination Analysis (CHARDA) adds a third dimension to MS, estimating for ...

Spatially-distributed cyclotron oscillators approach to FT-ICR MS at the true cyclotron frequency: Computational evaluation of sensitivity

Yury Tsybin, Anton Kozhinov, Konstantin Nagornov

Routine Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS) with ion detection at the unreduced (true) cyclotron frequency, instead of the reduced cyclotron frequency, has recently been demonstrated experimentally and supported computat ...

Drug-to-Antibody Ratio Estimation via Proteoform Peak Integration in the Analysis of Antibody-Oligonucleotide Conjugates with Orbitrap Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometry

Yury Tsybin, Laure Menin, Anton Kozhinov, Natalia Gasilova, Konstantin Nagornov

The therapeutic efficacy and pharmacokinetics of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) in general, and antibody-oligonucleotide conjugates (AOCs) in particular, depend on the drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) distribution and average value. The DAR is considered a cr ...

Drosophila melanogaster cloak their eggs with pheromones, which prevents cannibalism

Yury Tsybin, Laure Menin, Konstantin Nagornov

Oviparous animals across many taxa have evolved diverse strategies that deter egg predation, providing valuable tests of how natural selection mitigates direct fitness loss. Communal egg laying in nonsocial species minimizes egg predation. However, in cann ...

Multiplexed Middle-Down Mass Spectrometry as a Method for Revealing Light and Heavy Chain Connectivity in a Monoclonal Antibody

Yury Tsybin, Laure Menin, Luca Fornelli, Anton Kozhinov, Natalia Gasilova, Kristina Srzentic, Konstantin Nagornov, Daniel Ayoub

Pairing light and heavy chains in monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) using top-down (TD) or middle-down (MD) mass spectrometry (MS) may complement the sequence information on single chains provided by high-throughput genomic sequencing and bottom-up proteomics, ...

Device and Method for Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry

Yury Tsybin, Anton Kozhinov, Konstantin Nagornov

The present invention relates to a method and device for measuring m/z ratios of ions in ion cyclotron resonance (ICR) mass spectrometry. The described ion traps for ICR mass spectrometry are distinct from the previous configurations by having one or many ...

Monitoring Membrane Lipidome Turnover by Metabolic N-15 Labeling and Shotgun Ultra-High-Resolution Orbitrap Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometry

Yury Tsybin, Kristina Srzentic, Konstantin Nagornov

Lipidomes undergo permanent extensive remodeling, but how the turnover rate differs between lipid classes and molecular species is poorly understood. We employed metabolic N-15 labeling and shotgun ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry (sUHR) to quantify ...

Ion Trap with Narrow Aperture Detection Electrodes for Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry

Yury Tsybin, Anton Kozhinov, Konstantin Nagornov

The current paradigm in ion trap (cell) design for Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS) is the ion detection with wide aperture detection electrodes. Specifically, excitation and detection electrodes are typically 90A deg ...

Producing absorption mode Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectra with non-quadratic phase correction functions

Yury Tsybin, Konstantin Zhurov, Anton Kozhinov, Konstantin Nagornov

RATIONALE: Previously described methods for producing absorption mode Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) mass spectra have all relied on the phase correction function being quadratic. This assumption has been found to be invalid for some ins ...

Self-Assembly of a Giant Molecular Solomon Link from 30 Subcomponents

Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Clément Schouwey, Yury Tsybin, Konstantin Zhurov, Konstantin Nagornov

The synthesis of topologically complex structures, such as links and knots, is one of the current challenges in supramolecular chemistry. The so-called Solomon link consists of two doubly interlocked rings. Despite being a rather simple link from a topolog ...

High-Resolution Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry with Increased Throughput for Biomolecular Analysis

Yury Tsybin, Anton Kozhinov, Konstantin Nagornov

A multielectrode ion cyclotron resonance (ICR) cell, herein referred to as the 4X cell, for signal detection at the quadruple frequency multiple was implemented and characterized on a commercial 10 T Fourier transform ICR mass spectrometer (FT-ICR MS). Not ...
