Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) can retain intact protein structures, but details about partially folded and unfolded protein structures during and after introduction to the gas phase are elusive. Here we use ESI-MS with chemical cross-linkers to compare denatured cytochrome structures in both solution and gas phases. Solution phase cross-linking prior to ESI captures solution phase structures, while gas phase cross-linking through ion/ion reactions in the trap cell captures gas phase structures.

Temporary accommodation is a broad term for housing provided for those who have previously been homeless, covering different variations of support or tenancy length.
