Recent developments in electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry: noncovalently bound protein complexes

Abstract

Covering: up to end of 2004

Noncovalently bound macromolecular protein complexes constitute an essential aspect of the living cell and are responsible for many biological processes. This review focuses on the analysis of these important species by electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry. The current range of instrumentation is discussed and the major biological complexes studied to date are highlighted. This review has 108 references.
