摘要 |
The present invention provides methods whereby the positions of peptide amide groups that are labeled with a heavy hydrogen in a polypeptide or protein can be localized at high resolution. The methods are useful for determining which peptide amide groups in a polypeptide or protein are accessible to solvent, mapping the binding site and/or binding surface of a binding protein, and/or studying allosteric or other conformational changes in a polypeptide or protein which alter the rates at which certain peptide amide hydrogens exchange with solvent. |
