Infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) of thymine-rich oligodeoxynucleotides in a linear ion-trap mass spectrometer affords far more extensive fragmentation than conventional collision-induced dissociation (CID). For oligodeoxynucleotides containing one non-thymine base, CID results primarily in cleavage on the 3' side of the non-thymine nucleobase, whereas IRMPD results in cleavages between all the nucleobases and thus provides complete sequence coverage. Furthermore, for oligodeoxynucleotid ...[more]
