title: Determination of protein-ligand association thermochemistry using variable-temperature nanoelectrospray mass spectrometry.
abstract: A novel temperature-controlled nanoelectrospray (nanoES) device, interfaced with a Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer, is used to measure the association constants, Kassoc, for a series of protein-carbohydrate complexes at solution temperatures ranging from 5 to 40 degrees C. From a van't Hoff analysis of the Kassoc values, the enthalpies and entropies of association (DeltaHassoc, DeltaSassoc) at 25 degrees C are determined. The nanoES/mass spectrometry-derived thermodynamic parameters are in agreement with values previously determined by isothermal titration calorimetry.
