Billy Day’s group investigates the effects of libraries of newly-synthesized agents on the structure, function and architecture of cellular motors (e.g., dynein) and their railway systems (microtubules) by a variety of means, including modern nanoLC-mass spectrometry and high resolution imaging. The mass spectrometry resources are substantial, nine systems including MALDI-TOF-, MALDI-TOF/TOF-, ESI-TOF-, ESI-3D ion trap, ESI/MALDI-quadrupole-TOF and ESI/MALDI-12 Tesla FT-MS.
