Abstract
The combined use of hydrogen/deuterium exchange (HDX) and mass spectrometry (MS), referred to as HDX-MS, is a powerful tool for exploring molecular edifices and has been used for over 60 years. Initially for structural and mechanistic investigation of low-molecular weight organic compounds, then to study protein structure and dynamics, then, the craze to study small molecules by HDX-MS accelerated and has not stopped yet. The purpose of this review is to present its different facets with particular emphasis on recent developments and applications. Reversible H/D exchanges of mobilizable protons as well as stable exchanges of non-labile hydrogen are considered whether they are taking place in solution or in the gas phase, or enzymatically in a biological media. Some fundamental principles are restated, especially for gas-phase processes, and an overview of recent applications, ranging from identification to quantification through the study of metabolic pathways, is given.

Abstract
The controlling factors of the inhibition on enzymatic hydrolysis caused by residual lignin were identified with molecular level understanding of the mechanism. Residual lignin samples with different properties were isolated, characterized and added into the enzymatic hydrolysis of Avicel. It was found that the phenolic hydroxyl group (OH) was the main inhibitor in residual lignin, and the p-hydroxyphenyl OH was the crucial sub-structure that exhibited the highest inhibition and non-productive adsorption, ascribing to its higher electrophilicity and lower steric hindrance. The H-bond interaction and π-π stacking between phenolic OH of lignin and phenolic OH of tyrosine on the planar face of carbohydrate binding module of cellulase were probably responsible for the non-productive adsorption. The binding sites of H-bonds may be the H in phenolic OH of lignin and the O in phenolic OH of tyrosine, respectively, and that of the π-π stacking may be the benzene rings of them.

Abstract
Zwitterions are believed to play an important role in determining the structures, properties and functions of peptides and proteins. However, the smallest peptide with a zwitterionic structure as the global minimum in the gas phase is still not yet identified. In this study, an effective step-by-step strategy has been used to characterize the stable conformers of arginine-containing peptides arginylalanine (ArgAla) and arginylserine (ArgSer). Energy calculations at the DSD-PBEP86-D3BJ/aug-cc-pVTZ level and further extrapolation to the complete basis set (CBS) limit have confirmed, for the first time, that ArgSer appears to be a promising candidate as the smallest peptide with a zwitterionic global minimum structure. First-principles simulations have been performed for near-edge X-ray absorption fine-structure (NEXAFS) spectra and X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) at C, N and O K-edges, as well as for infrared (IR) spectra of these arginine-containing peptides. Notable spectral differences were found which enable the unambiguous identification of different neutral forms in future experiments. Our study thus provides valuable insights into the structural stability of zwitterions with the increase of molecular size and illustrates the competition between the canonical and zwitterionic isomers.

Abstract
Heptapeptide ions containing combinations of polar Lys, Arg, and Asp residues with non-polar Leu, Pro, Ala, and Gly residues were designed to study polar effects on gas-phase ion conformations. Doubly and triply charged ions were studied by ion mobility mass spectrometry and electron structure theory using correlated ab initio and density functional theory methods and found to exhibit tightly folded 3D structures in the gas phase. Manipulation of the basic residue positions in LKGPADR, LRGPADK, KLGPADR, and RLGPADK resulted in only minor changes in the ion collision cross sections in helium. Replacement of the Pro residue with Leu resulted in only marginally larger collision cross sections for the doubly and triply charged ions. Disruption of zwitterionic interactions in doubly charged ions was performed by converting the C-terminal and Asp carboxyl groups to methyl esters. This resulted in very minor changes in the collision cross sections of doubly charged ions and even slightly diminished collision cross sections in most triply charged ions. The experimental collision cross sections were related to those calculated for structures of lowest free energy ion conformers that were obtained by extensive search of the conformational space and fully optimized by density functional theory calculations. The predominant factors that affected ion structures and collision cross sections were due to attractive hydrogen bonding interactions and internal solvation of the charged groups that overcompensated their Coulomb repulsion. Structure features typically assigned to the Pro residue and zwitterionic COO-charged group interactions were only secondary in affecting the structures and collision cross sections of these gas-phase peptide ions.

Abstract
Low molecular weight polar organics are commonly observed in spacecraft environments. Increasing concentrations of one or more of these contaminants can negatively impact Environmental Control and Life Support (ECLS) systems and/or the health of crew members, posing potential risks to the success of manned space missions. Ambient plasma ionization mass spectrometry (MS) is finding effective use as part of the analytical methodologies being tested for next-generation space module environmental analysis. However, ambient ionization methods employing atmospheric plasmas typically require relatively high operation voltages and power, thus limiting their applicability in combination with fieldable mass spectrometers. In this work, we investigate the use of a low power microplasma device in the microhollow cathode discharge (MHCD) configuration for the analysis of polar organics encountered in space missions. A metal-insulator-metal (MIM) structure with molybdenum foil disc electrodes and a mica insulator was used to form a 300 μm diameter plasma discharge cavity. We demonstrate the application of these MIM microplasmas as part of a versatile miniature ion source for the analysis of typical volatile contaminants found in the International Space Station (ISS) environment, highlighting their advantages as low cost and simple analytical devices.

Abstract
The formation of a salt bridge in deprotonated glycine dimer anions in a solvent-free environment is investigated using both infrared multiple photon dissociation spectroscopy between 600 and 1800 cm(-1) and theory. The zwitterionic and nonzwitterionic forms of glycine in this complex are computed to be nearly iso-energetic, yet predominantly the zwitterionic form is observed experimentally. The zwitterion stability is attributed to both the Coulombic attraction and the high stabilization from intramolecular hydrogen bonding that drives the energetic cost of proton transfer in a solvent free environment. These results show that there is a fine balance between the stabilities of these two forms of the anion. Elucidating the role of intrinsic factors, such as hydrogen bonding, can lead to a better understanding of the stabilities of salt bridges in the interiors of large proteins or at protein interfaces.

Abstract
Hydration reactions of protonated and sodiated thiouracils (2-thiouracil, 6-methyl-2-thiouracil, and 4-thiouracil) generated by electrospray ionization have been studied in a gas phase at 10 mbar using a pulsed ion-beam high-pressure mass spectrometer. The thermochemical data, ΔH(o)n, ΔS(o)n, and ΔG(o)n, for the hydrated systems were obtained by equilibrium measurements. The water binding energies of protonated thiouracils, [2SU]H(+) and [6Me2SU]H(+), were found to be of the order of 51 kJ/mol for the first, and 46 kJ/mol for the second water molecule. For [4SU]H(+), these values are 3-4 kJ/mol lower. For sodiated complexes, these energies are similar for all studied systems, and varied between 62 and 68 kJ/mol for the first and between 48 and 51 kJ/mol for the second water molecule. The structural aspects of the precursors for hydrated complexes are discussed in conjunction with available literature data.

Abstract
Proton-bound [M⋅H⋅G]+ diastereomeric complexes between some chiral aromatic amino acids or dipeptides (G) and a chiral multifunctional macrocyclic receptor (M=Chirabite-A) undergo, in the gas phase, highly selective substitution and addition reactions by amines, such as 2-aminobutane and piperidine. All the [M⋅H⋅G]+ complexes follow time-dependent monoexponential decays. In some cases, the kinetic curves exhibit a plateau revealing the presence of unreactive [M⋅H⋅G]+ structures. In them, the amino acid is accommodated in the macrocycle cavity in the zwitterionic form by sharing its acidic hydrogen atoms with the pyridine nitrogen atoms of the host. The same interactions are structurally inaccessible to G=dipeptides or monofunctional amines, which then can be readily released from [M⋅H⋅G]+ . When the amino acid interacts with the amidocarbonyl oxygen atoms pointing outside the macrocycle cavity, it saves the canonical structure and can be readily displaced by the amine. The Chirabite-A may act as an efficient template for aromatic amino acids by releasing them or not depending upon the amino acid configuration and the basicity of the amine. These unique properties confer to the gas-phase diastereomeric [M⋅H⋅G]+ complexes the features of multi-input multi-output chemo-"logic gates".

Abstract
The present article is the third part of a general overview of the gas-phase protonation thermochemistry of polyfunctional molecules (first part: Mass Spectrom. Rev., 2007, 26:775-835, second part: Mass Spectrom. Rev., 2011, in press). This review is devoted to the 20 proteinogenic amino acids and is divided in two parts. In the first one, the experimental data obtained during the last 30 years using the equilibrium, thermokinetic and kinetic methods are presented. A general re-assignment of the values originating from these various experiments has been done on the basis of the commonly accepted Hunter & Lias 1998 gas-phase basicity scale in order to provide an homogeneous set of data. In the second part, theoretical investigations on gaseous neutral and protonated amino acids are reviewed. Conformational landscapes of both types of species were examined in order to provide theoretical protonation thermochemistry based on the truly identified most stable conformers. Proton affinities computed at the presently highest levels of theory (i.e. composite methods such as Gn procedures) are presented. Estimates of thermochemical parameters calculated using a Boltzmann distribution of conformers at 298K are also included. Finally, comparison between experiment and theory is discussed and a set of evaluated proton affinities, gas-phase basicities and protonation entropies is proposed.

Abstract
Infrared multiple-photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy was used to determine the gas-phase structures of deprotonated Pb(2+)/amino acid (Aa) complexes with and without a solvent molecule present. Five amino acid complexes with side chains containing only carbon and hydrogen (Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Pro) and one with a basic side chain (Lys) were compared. These experiments demonstrated that all [Pb(Aa-H)](+) complexes have Pb(2+) covalently bound between the amine nitrogen and carbonyl oxygen. The nonhydrated complexes containing Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, and Pro are amine-deprotonated, whereas the one containing Lys is deprotonated at its carboxylic acid. The difference is attributed to the polar and basic side chain of lysine, which helps stabilize Pb(2+). IRMPD spectroscopy was also performed on the monohydrated analogues of the [Pb(Aa-H)](+) complexes. The [Pb(Aa-H)H(2)O](+) complexes, where Aa = Ala, Val, Leu, and Ile, exhibited two N-H stretches as well as a carboxylic acid O-H and a PbO-H stretch. Hence, their structures are monohydrated versions of the amine-deprotonated [Pb(Aa-H)](+) complexes where a proton transfer has occurred from the lead-bound water to the deprotonated amine. The IRMPD spectrum and calculations suggest that [Pb(Pro-H)H(2)O](+) has a hydrated carboxylate salt structure. The structure of [Pb(Lys-H)H(2)O](+) was also carboxyl-deprotonated, but Pb(2+) is bound to the carbonyl oxygen and the amine nitrogen, with one of the protons belonging to the water transferred to the basic side chain. This results in an intramolecular hydrogen bond that does not absorb in the region of the spectrum probed in these experiments. The IRMPD spectra and structural characterizations were confirmed and aided by infrared spectra calculated at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory and 298 K enthalpies and Gibbs energies using the MP2(full)/6-311++G(2d,2p) method on the B3LYP geometries.

Abstract
The structure of the proton-bound lysine dimer has been investigated by infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy and electronic structure calculations. The structures of different possible isomers of the proton-bound lysine dimer have been optimized at the B3LYP/6-31 + G(d) level of theory and IR spectra calculated using the same computational method. Based on relative Gibbs free energies (298 K) calculated at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/6-31 + G(d) level of theory, LL-CS01, and followed closely (1.1 kJ mol(-1)) by LL-CS02 are the most stable non-zwitterionic isomers. At the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ//6-31 + G(d) and MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ//6-31 + (d,p) levels of theory, isomer LL-CS02 is favored by 3.0 and 2.3 kJ mol(-1), respectively. The relative Gibbs free energies calculated by the aforementioned levels of theory for LL-CS01 and LL-CS02 are very close and strongly suggest that diagnostic vibrational signatures found in the IRMPD spectrum of the proton-bound dimer of lysine can be attributed to the existence of both isomers. LL-ZW01 is the most stable zwitterionic isomer, in which the zwitterionic structure of the neutral lysine is well stabilized by the protonated lysine moiety via a very strong intermolecular hydrogen bond. At the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/6-31 + G(d), MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ//6-31 + G(d) and MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ//6-31 + G(d,p) levels of theory, the most stable zwitterionic isomer (LL-ZW01) is less favored than LL-CS01 by 7.3, 4.1 and 2.3 kJ mol(-1), respectively. The experimental IRMPD spectrum also confirms that the proton-bound dimer of lysine largely exists as charge-solvated isomers. Investigation of zwitterionic and charge-solvated species of amino acids in the gas phase will aid in a further understanding of structure, property, and function of biological molecules.

Abstract
Mid-infrared (IR) hole burning spectra of the model tripeptide Z-Aib-Pro-NHMe (Z = benzyloxycarbonyl) in gas phase and its micro-clusters with one and two methanol molecules are presented. To establish a relation between experimental spectra and the underlying conformations, calculations at the DFT [B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p)] level of theory are performed. In particular, the intra-peptide and the peptide-methanol hydrogen bonds can be identified from spectral shifts in the amide I, II, and III regions. While the unsolvated tripeptide as well as its one-methanol cluster prefer a gamma-turn structure, a beta-turn structure is found for the two-methanol cluster, in agreement with previous condensed phase studies. Comparison of measured and simulated spectra reveals that the favorable methanol binding sites are at the head and tail parts of the tripeptide. The interconversions between gamma-turn and beta-turn structures are governed by potential barriers below 10 kJ mol(-1) inside one of the low energy basins of the potential energy surface.

Abstract
Both Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS) and high-pressure mass spectrometry (HPMS) are very powerful tools in the field of gas phase ion chemistry. Many experimental method developments based on FTICR-MS and HPMS are summarized, including the coupling of a high-pressure external ion source to a FTICR mass spectrometer, blackbody infrared radiative dissociation (BIRD), coupling laser desorption ionization with HPMS, infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD), radiative association and bimolecular routes to gas phase cluster ion formation. An abundance of thermochemical data, such as proton affinities, gas phase acidities, methyl cation affinities and metal cation affinities, have been obtained. Some of these data are the basis of the standard data listed in the NIST thermochemical databases. Ion-molecule interactions, energetics, reactivities, and structures of molecules have been extensively investigated using the methods developed based on HPMS and FTICR mass spectrometric techniques.

Abstract
Zwitterionic structures exist extensively in biological systems and the electric field resulting from zwitterion formation is the driving force for determination of the properties, function and activity of biological molecules, such as amino acids, peptides and proteins. It is of considerable interest and import to investigate the stabilization of zwitterionic structures in the gas phase. Infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy is a very powerful and sensitive technique, which may elucidate clearly the structures of both ions and ionic clusters in the gas phase, since it provides IR vibrational fingerprint information. The structures of the clusters of glycine and ammonium ion and of the betaine proton-bound homodimer have been investigated using IRMPD spectroscopy, in combination with electronic structure calculations. The experimental and calculated results indicate that zwitterionic structure of glycine may be effectively stabilized by an ammonium ion. This is the smallest zwitterionic structure of an amino acid to be demonstrated in the gas phase. On the basis of the experimental IRMPD and calculated results, it is very clear that a zwitterionic structure exists in the proton-bound betaine dimer. The proton is bound to one of the carboxylate oxygens of betaine, rather than being equally shared. Investigations of zwitterionic structures in the isolated state are essential for an understanding of the intrinsic characteristics of zwitterions and salt bridge interactions in biological systems.

Abstract
Noncovalent interactions, such as van der Waals interactions, hydrogen bonds, salt bridge and cation-Pi interactions play extremely important roles in biological systems and, in contrast to covalent bonds, many such noncovalent interactions are not well understood. In the present work a new protocol has been developed to measure the enhancement of binding energies due to cation-Pi interactions between aromatic amino acids and organic or metal ions. Investigation of the cation-Pi interactions will provide further insight into the structure and function of biological molecules.
