Abstract
The fungal natural product aspergillomarasmine A (AMA) has been identified as a noncompetitive inhibitor of New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) that inhibits by removing ZnII from the active-site. The nonselective metal-chelating properties and difficult synthesis and derivatization of AMA have hindered the development of this scaffold into a potent and selective inhibitor of NDM-1. Iminodiacetic acid (IDA) has been identified as the metal-binding pharmacophore (MBP) core of AMA that can be leveraged for inhibitor development. Herein, we report the use of IDA for fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD) of NDM-1 inhibitors. IDA (IC50 =120 μM) was developed into inhibitor 23 f (IC50 =8.6 μM, Ki =2.6 μM), which formed a ternary complex with NDM-1, as evidenced by protein thermal-shift and native-state electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) experiments. Combining mechanistic analysis with inhibitor derivatization, the use of IDA as an alternative AMA scaffold for NDM-1 inhibitor development is detailed.

Abstract
A modular assembly of water-soluble diarylethenes (DAEs), applicable as biomarkers for optical nanoscopy, is reported. Reversibly photoswitchable 1,2-bis(2-alkyl-6-phenyl-1-benzothiophene-1,1-dioxide-3-yl)perfluorocyclopentenes possessing a fluorescent "closed" form were decorated with one or two methoxy group(s) attached to the para-position(s) of phenyl ring(s) and two, four, or eight carboxylic acid groups. Antibody conjugates of these DAEs feature low aggregation, efficient photoswitching in aqueous buffers, specific staining of cellular structures, and photophysical properties (high emission efficiencies and low cycloreversion quantum yields) enabling their application in superresolution microscopy. Images of tubulin, vimentin, and nuclear pore complexes are presented. The superresolution images can also be acquired by using solely 488 nm light without additional photoactivation with UV light. These DAEs exhibit reversible photoswitching without requiring any additives to the imaging media and open new paths toward the modular design of fluorescent dyes for bioimaging with optical superresolution.

Abstract
Radiolabeling of ligands is still the gold standard in the study of high-affinity receptor-ligand interactions. In an effort toward safer and simpler alternatives to the use of radioisotopes, we developed a quantitative and highly sensitive matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) method that relies on the use of chemically tagged ligands designed to be specifically detectable when present as traces in complex biological mixtures such as cellular lysates. This innovative technology allows easy, sensitive detection and accurate quantification of analytes at the sub-nanomolar level. After statistical validation, we were able to perform pharmacological evaluations of G protein-coupled receptor (V1A-R)-ligand interactions. Both saturation and competitive binding assays were successfully processed.

Abstract
Understanding the way how proteins interact with each other to form transient or stable protein complexes is a key aspect in structural biology. In this study, we combined chemical cross-linking with mass spectrometry to determine the binding stoichiometry and map the protein-protein interaction network of a human SAGA HAT subcomplex. MALDI-MS equipped with high mass detection was used to follow the cross-linking reaction using bis[sulfosuccinimidyl] suberate (BS3) and confirm the heterotetrameric stoichiometry of the specific stabilized subcomplex. Cross-linking with isotopically labeled BS3 d0-d4 followed by trypsin digestion allowed the identification of intra- and intercross-linked peptides using two dedicated search engines: pLink and xQuest. The identified interlinked peptides suggest a strong network of interaction between GCN5, ADA2B and ADA3 subunits; SGF29 is interacting with GCN5 and ADA3 but not with ADA2B. These restraint data were combined to molecular modeling and a low-resolution interacting model for the human SAGA HAT subcomplex could be proposed, illustrating the potential of an integrative strategy using cross-linking and mass spectrometry for addressing the structural architecture of multiprotein complexes.

Abstract
The role of the ionic liquid (IL) anion structure on analyte signal enhancements has been systematically investigated in secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) using a variety of samples, including lipids, sterols, polymers, and peptides. Twenty-four ILs were synthesized. The 12 matrix acids were cinnamic acid derivatives. Two bases were employed: 1-methylimidazole and tripropylamine. Three matrices, methylimmidazolium o-coumarate, tripropylammonium o-coumarate, and tripropylammonium 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamate, were "universal" matrices enhancing all analytes tested. The pKa of the matrix acid does not appear to have a strong effect on analyte ion intensities. Rather, it is observed that a single hydroxyl group on the anion aromatic ring leads to significantly increased molecular ion intensities. No analyte signal enhancements were observed for -CH3, -CF3 and -OCH3 groups present on the aromatic ring. The position of the -OH group on the aromatic ring also alters molecular ion intensity enhancements. As well as the chemical identity and position of substituents, the number of moieties on the aromatic ring may affect the analyte signal enhancements observed. These observations suggest that the activation of the IL anion aromatic ring is important for optimizing analyte signal intensities. The implications for SIMS imaging of complex structures, such as biological samples, are discussed.

Abstract
The cross-linking approach combined with MS for protein structure determination is one of the most striking examples of multidisciplinary success. Indeed, it has become clear that the bottleneck of the method was the detection and the identification of low-abundance cross-linked peptides in complex mixtures. Sample treatment or chromatography separation partially addresses these issues. However, the main problem comes from over-represented unmodified peptides, which do not yield any structural information. A real breakthrough was provided by high mass accuracy measurement, because of the outstanding technical developments in MS. This improvement greatly simplified the identification of cross-linked peptides, reducing the possible combinations matching with an observed m/z value. In addition, the huge amount of data collected has to be processed with dedicated software whose role is to propose distance constraints or ideally a structural model of the protein. In addition to instrumentation and algorithms efficiency, significant efforts have been made to design new cross-linkers matching all the requirements in terms of reactivity and selectivity but also displaying probes or reactive systems facilitating the isolation, the detection of cross-links, or the interpretation of MS data. These chemical features are reviewed and commented on in the light of the more recent strategies.

Abstract
A newcomer to the -omics era, proteomics, is a broad instrument-intensive research area that has advanced rapidly since its inception less than 20 years ago. Although the 'wet-bench' aspects of proteomics have undergone a renaissance with the improvement in protein and peptide separation techniques, including various improvements in two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and gel-free or off-gel protein focusing, it has been the seminal advances in MS that have led to the ascension of this field. Recent improvements in sensitivity, mass accuracy and fragmentation have led to achievements previously only dreamed of, including whole-proteome identification, and quantification and extensive mapping of specific PTMs (post-translational modifications). With such capabilities at present, one might conclude that proteomics has already reached its zenith; however, 'capability' indicates that the envisioned goals have not yet been achieved. In the present review we focus on what we perceive as the areas requiring more attention to achieve the improvements in workflow and instrumentation that will bridge the gap between capability and achievement for at least most proteomes and PTMs. Additionally, it is essential that we extend our ability to understand protein structures, interactions and localizations. Towards these ends, we briefly focus on selected methods and research areas where we anticipate the next wave of proteomic advances.

Abstract
Among many methods used to investigate protein/protein interactions, chemical cross-linking combined with mass spectrometry remains a vital experimental approach. Mapping peptides modified by cross-linker provides clues about proteins' interacting domains. One complication is that such modification may result from intra- but not intermolecular interactions. Therefore, for overall data interpretation, a combination of results from various platforms is necessary. It is postulated that the secretory isoform of gelsolin regulates several biological processes through interactions with proteins such as actin, fibronectin, vitamin D-binding protein, and unidentified receptors on the surface of eukaryotes; it also has been shown to self-assemble eventually leading to the formation of homo-multimers. As such, it is an excellent model for this study. We used four cross-linkers with arm length ranging from 7.7 to 21.7Å and MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry as the analytical platform. Results of this study show that MALDI-based mass spectrometry generates high quality data to show lysine residues modified by cross-linkers and combined with existing data based on crystallography (Protein Data Bank, PDB) can be used to discriminate between inter- and intramolecular linking.

Abstract
Structural proteomics is the application of protein chemistry and modern mass spectrometric techniques to problems such as the characterization of protein structures and assemblies and the detailed determination of protein-protein interactions. The techniques used in structural proteomics include crosslinking, photoaffinity labeling, limited proteolysis, chemical protein modification and hydrogen/deuterium exchange, all followed by mass spectrometric analysis. None of these methods alone can provide complete structural information, but a "combination" of these complementary approaches can be used to provide enough information for answering important biological questions. Structural proteomics can help to determine, for example, the detailed structure of the interfaces between proteins that may be important drug targets and the interactions between proteins and ligands. In this review, we have tried to provide a brief overview of structural proteomics methodologies, illustrated with examples from our laboratory and from the literature.

Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) has been demonstrated to be a valuable tool to investigate noncovalent interactions of biomolecules. The direct detection of noncovalent assemblies is often more troublesome than with electrospray ionization. Using dedicated sample preparation techniques and carefully optimized instrumental parameters, a number of biomolecule assemblies were successfully analyzed. For complexes dissociating under MALDI conditions, covalent stabilization with chemical cross-linking is a suitable alternative. Indirect methods allow the detection of noncovalent assemblies by monitoring the fading of binding partners or altered H/D exchange patterns.

Abstract
After more than a decade of method development, cross-linking in combination with mass spectrometry and bioinformatics is finally coming of age. This technology now provides improved opportunities for modelling by mapping structural details of functional complexes in solution. The structure of proteins or protein complexes is ascertained by identifying amino acid pairs that are positioned in close proximity to each other. The validity of this technique has recently been benchmarked for large multi-protein complexes, by comparing cross-link data with that from a crystal structure of RNA polymerase II. Here, the specific nature of this cross-linking data will be discussed to assess the technical challenges and opportunities for model building. We believe that once remaining technological challenges of cross-linking/mass spectrometry have been addressed and cross-linking/mass spectrometry data has been incorporated into modelling algorithms it will quickly become an indispensable companion of protein and protein complex modelling and a corner-stone of integrated structural biology.

Abstract
Chemical probing represents a very versatile alternative for studying the structure and dynamics of substrates that are intractable by established high-resolution techniques. The implementation of MS-based strategies for the characterization of probing products has not only extended the range of applicability to virtually all types of biopolymers but has also paved the way for the introduction of new reagents that would not have been viable with traditional analytical platforms. As the availability of probing data is steadily increasing on the wings of the development of dedicated interpretation aids, powerful computational approaches have been explored to enable the effective utilization of such information to generate valid molecular models. This combination of factors has contributed to making the possibility of obtaining actual 3D structures by MS-based technologies (MS3D) a reality. Although approaches for achieving structure determination of unknown targets or assessing the dynamics of known structures may share similar reagents and development trajectories, they clearly involve distinctive experimental strategies, analytical concerns and interpretation paradigms. This Perspective offers a commentary on methods aimed at obtaining distance constraints for the modeling of full-fledged structures while highlighting common elements, salient distinctions and complementary capabilities exhibited by methods used in dynamics studies. We discuss critical factors to be addressed for completing effective structural determinations and expose possible pitfalls of chemical methods. We survey programs developed for facilitating the interpretation of experimental data and discuss possible computational strategies for translating sparse spatial constraints into all-atom models. Examples are provided to illustrate how the concerted application of very diverse probing techniques can lead to the solution of actual biological systems.
