Amide hydrogen/deuterium exchange coupled with mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) has become increasingly popular technology to study protein dynamics, protein-ligand interactions, and protein-protein interactions. Particularly interesting applications of the technology include biosimilars, nuclear receptors, and epitope mapping of therapeutic antibodies.

In this webinar, theory and practice of HDX-MS is discussed in conjunction with the topics of pharmaceutical industry.
