Abstract
Native mass spectrometry (MS), or as is sometimes called "native electrospray ionization" allows proteins in their native or near-native states in solution to be introduced into the gas phase and interrogated by mass spectrometry. This approach is now a powerful tool to investigate protein complexes. This article reviews the background of native MS of protein complexes and describes its strengths, taking photosynthetic pigment-protein complexes as examples. Native MS can be utilized in combination with other MS-based approaches to obtain complementary information to that provided by tools such as X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy to understand the structure-function relationships of protein complexes. When additional information beyond that provided by native MS is required, other MS-based strategies can be successfully applied to augment the results of native MS.

This short review describes how solid-state NMR has provided a mechanistic and electronic picture of pigment-protein and pigment-pigment interactions in photosynthetic antenna complexes. NMR results on purple bacterial antenna complexes show how the packing of the protein and the pigments inside the light-harvesting oligomers induces mutual...

In the photosynthetic redox chain, small electron transfer proteins shuttle electrons between the large membrane-associated redox complexes. Short-lived but specific protein:protein complexes are formed to enable fast electron transfer. Recent nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies have elucidated the binding sites on plastocyanin, cytochrome c (6) and...
