Vicki Wysocki, Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at The Ohio State University, describes how Q-TOF has helped her push the boundaries of protein characterization. The accurate characterization of protein complexes is very important, especially in target and drug discovery fields, and ion mobility-mass spectrometry offers flexibility and capability unmatched by traditional NMR or x-ray methods.
