Abstract
We applied this top down proteomics platform to study proteins from Methanococcus jannaschii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. From the whole cell lysate of yeast, ∼120 ion species were successfully identified with 100% sequence coverage, and we also detected several post-translational modifications, including acetylations, phosphorylations, methylations, formylations and oxidations.
