The helix-forming character of a model decapeptide, L4PL4K, is determined in the absence of solvent using ion mobility mass spectrometry, electron capture dissociation and molecular mechanics simulations. Unusual ECD fragmentation patterns dominated by b ions are attributed to helix formation upon electron capture and as a signature of conformational dynamics. ; Kalapothakis, Jason M D Berezovskaya, Yana Zampronio, Cleidiane G Faull, Peter A Barran, Perdita E Cooper, Helen J eng England Cambridge, England 2013/11/13 06:00 Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Jan 7;50(2):198-200. doi: 10.1039/c3cc46356g.
