Mass spectrometry is applied physics

• Magnetism• Newtons laws of motion• Basic tennants are dealing with charged molecules• Two laws:

– Lorenz force law:– If a particle of charge q moves with velocity v in the presence of

an electric field E and a magnetic field B, then it will experience a force (F)

– Newtons second law (non-relatavistic motion):

• F=ma

– The terms F can be related and the equation derived:

• (m/q)a= E + v x B

What is the take home point?

• We can control our voltages• We know our distances• We know our field strengths• Thus:

– A simple set of equations can be used to calculate the m/z for all different types of mass spectrometers

¤ Mass analyzers separate ions based on their mass-to-charge ratio (m/z)

¤ Operate under high vacuum (keeps ions from bumping into gas molecules)

¤ Actually measure mass-to-charge ratio of ions (m/z)

¤ Key specifications are resolution, mass measurement accuracy, and sensitivity.

¤ Several kinds exist: for bioanalysis, quadrupole, time-of-flight and ion traps are most used.

Ion Trap Design modified by Alexander Makarov

• Uses a combination of electrostatic attraction (charge) and centripetal forces

• Image current is detected as ions orbit central electrode (detected on outer electrode)

• Data is processed in a similar manner to FTICR data (Fourrier Transformed)

• Despite being called a Dalton after John Dalton in 1803 who suggested 1H, the discovery of naturally occurring isotopes in 1912 eventually lead to one AMU or Dalton (Da) as being based upon using carbon 12, 12C, as a reference

• One Dalton is defined as 1/12 the mass of a single carbon-12 atom

• Thus, one 12C atom has a mass of 12.0000 Da.

Average mass

Average mass corresponds to the centroid of the unresolved peak cluster

When the isotopes are not resolved, the centroid of the envelope corresponds to the weighted average of all the the isotope peaks in the cluster, which is the same as the average or chemical mass.

How is resolution calculated?

• Resolution is the ratio of the mass divided by full width at half maximum. Also known as resolving power

• R = m/Δm where• Δm = peak width (FWHM definition)• Δm = mass difference between two• peaks (valley definition)

• What mass resolution is required to separate m/z 88 and 89?

m/Δm = 88/1 = 88

Database size affects sensitivity

• Large databases:– Unrestricted search (e.g. no-enzyme)– Large number of entries

• Algorithms lose sensitivity as search space is increased (more peptides have to be queried)

• For both Mascot and Sequest, more correct peptide IDs when used IPI (56,000 entries) vs. NR (1.5 million entries)

• Mascot is more affected than Sequest– In large database searches, Mascot will list the peptides in the top

10, but not list them first (when compare to smaller DB)– Sequest better able to rank poorer quality peptides, especially

when large database used and unconstrained searches done
