Unlike small-molecule drugs, the size and dynamics of protein therapeutics challenge existing methods for assessing their high order structures (HOS). To extend fast photochemical oxidation of proteins (FPOP) to protein therapeutics, we modified its platform by introducing a mixing step prior to laser irradiation to minimize unwanted H(2)O(2)-induced oxidation. This improvement plus standardizing each step yield better reproducibility as determined by a fitting process whereby we used a non-FPOP ...[more]
