J Mol Biol. 281:1998;553-564. This paper explores the relationship between mass spectrometry conditions and solution data. Using a range of conditions to effectively calibrate the mass spectrometer, the stabilities of amyloidgenic variants of transthyretin in solution are proposed.

This review covers important considerations for protein-ligand complexes in the gas phase. The nature of the interactions and the use of competitive binding experiments for libraries of ligands is discussed, together with the limitations and the promise of the MS method.
