Robust methods for rapid structure determination or folding state are lacking, particularly for analysis of proteins in their native environment i.e. in vivo. Protein structure is further complicated by the presence a wide variety of post-translational modifications which are not encoded in the genomic information. Our research applies molecular recognition in combination with mass spectrometry to probe the surface structures (including PTMs) of proteins, protein complexes, and larger assemblies. Careful control of the temporal ordering of events will allow both the solution and gas phase structures to be determined and compared. In this manner, both the most relevant (solution phase) and most intrinsic (gas phase) information about structure can be determined for the same system.

We define analytical chemistry research as the development and application of chemical measurements and instrumentation. Bioanalytical chemistry is the application of analytical chemistry to topics of importance to biology or medicine. In this approach, an interesting problem is identified and a variety of analytical methods are applied to answer questions related to the problem. Because biological problems are complex chemically, the student�s research may require the use of separation methods like HPLC or capillary isotachophoresis. NMR and mass spectrometry are important tools in our research because they provide extensive chemical information and are useful quantitative tools. Areas of current research interest include the development of new methods to measure ligand-protein interactions, the development of isotachophoresis � NMR for the separation and analysis of mass-limited samples (for example heparin oligosaccharides), and metabonomics studies of ischemia-reperfusion using NMR and LC-MS/MS.
