Shotgun Target Identification

Ronald Quinn of Griffith University in Australia will use anti-malarial compounds as probes to trap protein targets. Mass spectrometry followed by electron capture dissociation (ECD) and electron-transfer dissociation (ETD) will be used to identify individual binding domains between the anti-malarial compounds in the Malaria Box and the malaria parasite proteome that can be used as specific drug targets.
