Abstract:  

“Fragment Ion Mass Defect Labeling of Peptides for Proteome Analysis”

Abstract: The combination of fragment ion mass defect labeling with averagine-scaling analysis, both developed in our laboratory, promises a profound impact on peptide tandem mass spectrometry. This combination effectively uses the broad and unoccupied mass spaces in the low m/z region of mass spectra for “interference-free” peptide analysis and fast data complexity reduction. Various iodine- and other halogen-containing reagents are used as the labeling reagents. According to difference gas-phase fragmentation characteristics, potential applications of these reagents in proteome analysis will be discussed.

 

 


Biography:

Dr. Xudong Yao obtained his Ph.D. from University of Maryland Baltimore County and his B.S. and M.S. from Nanjing University. He was trained in mass spectrometry with Prof. Catherine Fenselau as a post-doctoral associate. After working in biotech and pharmaceutical industry in Europe and USA, he is currently an assistant professor in the Chemistry Department of the University of Connecticut. His group is interested in developing novel enabling analytical technologies and applying these unique methods to “-ome” sample analysis including targeted membrane proteome analysis and systems proteomics of protein phosphorylation.
