Summary Introduction

To calculate: The masses of the peptide fragments of the sequence NNKNN, as determined by tandem mass spectrometry.

Concept introduction: The multiple steps of mass spectrometry selection is called Tandem mass spectrometry. It is an analytical technique that is used to characterize the peptide components within the sample. The sum of atomic weights of all atoms in a molecule is called molecular mass. The weight of the molecule is the relative molecular mass of the molecule. The molecular weight is measured in terms of atomic mass units.
