摘要

High-resolution MS (HRMS) is a central analytical technique for the study of biomolecules and is widely used in the biopharmaceutical industry. This paper reviews recent advances in commonly used HRMS instrumentation and experimental strategies for HRMS-based structural characterization of protein therapeutics. An overview of protein higher order structural characterization using HRMS-based technologies is presented, including the use of hydrogen/deuterium exchange and hydroxyl radical footprinting methods for probing protein conformational dynamics and interactions in solution. Future directions in application of HRMS for characterizing protein therapeutics are also described.
