Protein and Peptide Analysis by Mass Spectrometry

About this book

Leading practitioners authoritatively describe the newest and most effective spectrometric techniques for the analysis of proteins and peptides. The areas covered range from the elucidation of primary and secondary protein structure and the rapid identification of proteins using database techniques to methods for sequencing, as well as methods for the quantitative determination of peptides. Other chapters provide detailed information on the analysis of glycoproteins and glycopeptides and on the use of mass spectrometry to probe the interactions of proteins, both covalent and noncovalent.
