zCID:
z Collision Induced Decomposition: molecules fly
through a collision cell and fragment as a result of
collisions with collision gases.
z LID and CID are used in the TOF-TOF as two
alternative and complementary dissociation
methods.

Daughter Ions Peptide fragmentation
z Unlike the MALDI, ions produced by
electrospray/nanospray machines may carry
multiple charges
z Various types of ions are produced,
categorized by their charge and their
direction in the peptide sequence

De-Novo Sequencing
z If the protein is still not identified, the
sequence of a peptide has to be
reconstructed from the MS/MS data
De-Novo Sequencing z Very time consuming and demands a great
deal of skill, noisy data is very problematic
z Sequencing is carried out by finding mass
differences between peaks that correspond
to amino acid masses
Tags
z Easy to find initial masses in “ladder”
z Tags modify the fragmentation of the
peptide
z Reduce isobaric problems
z Neutralise the adverse effects of certain
residues on peptide fragmentation

Databases Searched with
MS/MS Data
z Non-identical protein databases are the ideal
z EST databases translated in 6 frames are
very useful as individual peptides may be
identified
z Translated nucleic acid databases
