résumé
Here we present a protocol for the rapid identification of proteins produced by genomically sequenced pathogenic bacteria using MALDI-TOF-TOF tandem mass spectrometry and top-down proteomic analysis with software developed in-house. Metastable protein ions fragment because of the aspartic acid effect and this specificity is exploited for protein identification.
