Improved Sequence Analysis of Intact Proteins by Parallel Ion Parking during Electron Transfer Dissociation.

Electron transfer dissociation (ETD) is an analytically useful tool for primary structure interrogation of intact proteins, but its utility is limited by higher-order reactions with the products. To inhibit these higher-order reactions, first-generation fragment ions are kinetically excited by applying an experimentally tailored parallel ion parking waveform during ETD (ETD-PIP). In combination with subsequent ion/ion proton transfer reactions, precursor-to-product conversion was maximized as evidenced by the consumption of more than 90% of the 21 kDa Protein G precursor to form ETD product ions. The employment of ETD-PIP increased sequence coverage to 90% from 80% with standard ETD. Additionally, the inhibition of sequential electron transfers was reflected in the high number of complementary ion pairs from ETD-PIP (90%) compared to standard ETD (39%).
