MassCCS: A High-Performance Collision Cross-Section Software for Large Macromolecular Assemblies.

Ion mobility mass spectrometry (IM-MS) techniques have become highly valued as a tool for structural characterization of biomolecular systems since they yield accurate measurements of the rotationally averaged collision cross-section (CCS) against a buffer gas. Despite its enormous potential, IM-MS data interpretation is often challenging due to the conformational isomerism of metabolites, lipids, proteins, and other biomolecules in the gas phase. Therefore, reliable and fast CCS calculations are needed to help interpret IM-MS data.
