Combining HD exchange and ESI-FAIMS-MS for detecting gas-phase conformers of equine cytochrome c
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Conformers of equine cytochrome c were investigated in the gas phase using a combination of high-field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) and hydrogendeuterium (HD) exchange. Electrospray generated ions of equine cytochrome c were exposed to a low concentration of D 2 O vapour while being transported by a flow of nitrogen through a FAIMS device. During this transport period of about 250 ms in the FAIMS analyzer, the various conformers of multiply charged ions of cytochrome c were simultaneously undergoing HD exchange and being separated from each other. The extent of HD exchange was calculated from the observed m/z of conformers after exposure to D 2 O vapour in FAIMS. The complementary nature of these two methods resulted in observations supporting a greater number of conformers (e.g., at least 11 conformers were identified for the +16 charge state) than would be expected by analyzing the FAIMS data and the HD exchange data independently.Key words: FAIMS, HD exchange, mass spectrometry, protein conformations, electrospray ionization.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
