Proteome-Wide Structural Biology: An Emerging Field for the Structural Analysis of Proteins on the Proteomic Scale

Over the past decade, a suite of new mass-spectrometry-based proteomics methods has been developed that now enables the conformational properties of proteins and protein-ligand complexes to be studied in complex biological mixtures, from cell lysates to intact cells. Highlighted here are seven of the techniques in this new toolbox. These techniques include chemical cross-linking (XL-MS), hydroxyl radical footprinting (HRF), Drug Affinity...
