    摘要: Systems and methods of in vivo hydroxyl radical protein foot-printing are presented. These teachings may be used to, for example, study three-dimensional protein structure or bio-kinetics. Radical Dosimetry including an optional intrinsic standard is used on isolated intact cells. Real-time feedback based on an internal standard provides comparability between different experiments and in vivo analysis results in data that is representative of actual biological conditions.

    摘要: Flash Photo-Oxidation Device and Higher Order Structural Analysis is employed for higher order structural analysis of biomolecules. Biomolecular higher order structure (HOS) results from the confounded superimposition of a biomolecule's secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structure and defines the manner in which a biomolecule presents itself and interacts with other biomolecules in living systems. A rapidly growing class of therapeutic drugs, known as biotherapeutics, comprises a variety of proteins, whose therapeutic properties are inherently linked and dependent upon their HOS. As such, HOS analysis of biotherapeutics is an important analytical requirement in the biopharmaceutical industry. The present invention provides new means and methods for the determination of biopharmaceutical HOS and associated conformation using improved devices and methodologies for flash photo-oxidation of proteins to determine their higher order biomolecular structure, and such is responsive to the increased demand for new and improved HOS analytical means in the biopharmaceutical industry.
