Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in enzymology: uncovering the mechanisms of two- substrate reactions

Shipovskov, Stepan LU and Reimann, Curt LU (2007) In Analyst 132(5). p.397-402
Abstract
The purpose of this review is to draw attention to the use of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry ( ESI-MS) for monitoring the course of enzyme substrate interactions, in the particular case of complex systems in which two substrates participate. The determination and characterization of intra-molecular reactions, especially those that occur in the enzyme active site, is not a trivial task in chemical kinetics, typically requiring long measurement times and relatively expensive techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), X-ray crystallography or electron microscopy ( EM). However, nowadays almost all laboratories are equipped with or else have access to the ESI-MS technique. The aim of this review is to focus on the... (More)

The aim of this review is to focus on the possibilities of employing even quite simple MS equipment to tackle different applications in studies of complex enzymatic systems. (Less)
