New Insights into the Vacuum UV Photodissociation of Peptides.

Vacuum ultraviolet laser photodissociation (UVPD) of peptide ions leads to unusual dissociation channels involving backbone C-C bond breaking. However, the molecular basis for the observed behavior is not clearly understood. We now report theoretical investigations using ab initio/density functional...
