金属离子与钙调蛋白相互作用的基质辅助激光解析电离飞行时间质谱研究

Calmodulin is a ubiquitous calcium-binding protein in eukaryote cells and engages in various important biological pathways. In the present study, binding interactions between several metal ions and calmodulin were nvestigated by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS).The results revealed that the specific binding of metal ions with the protein could be detected using MALDI-TOF MS.
