Biotherapeutics consist of biopolymers (proteins, polysaccharides, DNA, and RNA) that are used to treat a wide range of conditions from cancer to autoimmune disease to enzyme replacement. In recent years biotherapeutics have experience tremendous growth due to advances in technology and our understanding of human biology. They are very important to modern medicine due to their ability to treat diseases which are unable to be treated with small molecule-based drugs. Unlike small molecule drugs which are synthetically produced, biotherapeutics are expressed inside cells. Produced biotherapeutics are not made up of a single homogenous population but instead a population of highly similar variants. The source of these variations are enzymatic and non-enzymatic post-translational modifications. By characterizing these modification, a profile is built that links the in vivo response of a drug to its modifications. The complexity and size of these biopolymers makes their characterization very challenging and demands the development of robust analytical techniques. Mass spectrometry- and liquid chromatography-base methods are an integral part of protein characterization. Mass spectrometry provides accurate mass measurements that are invaluable for confirming the identity of a protein and any modifications. Additionally, mass spectrometry is used to assess a protein's higher order structure. Liquid chromatography is a very powerful tool that allows for different post-translational modified populations of a biotherapeutic sample to separate by their chemical or physical properties. Separated populations can further be characterized to identify and analyze their chemical or structural composition. The presented work utilized a blend of mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography methods to characterize proteins with biotherapeutic potential.

Little more than three years down the line and I am already writing the Preface to a second volume to follow Protein and Peptide Analysis by Mass . What has happened in between these times to make this second venture worthwhile? New types of mass spectrometric instrumentation have appeared so that new techniques have become possible and existing techniques have become much more feasible. More particularly, however, the newer ionization te- niques, introduced for the analysis of high molecular weight materials, have now been thoroughly used and studied. As a result, there has been an en- mous improvement in the associated sample handling technology so that these methods are now routinely applied to much smaller sample amounts as well as to more intractable samples. Again, this particular community of mass spectrometry users has both increased in number and diversified. And, riding this wave of acceptance, leaders in the field have set their sights on more complex problems: molecular interaction, ion structures, quantitation, and kinetics are just a few of the newer areas reported in Mass Spectrometry of Proteins and Peptides. As with the first volume, one purpose of this collection, Mass Spectr- etry of Proteins and Peptides, is to show the reader what can be done by the application of mass spectrometry, and perhaps even to encourage the reader to venture down new paths.

This book highlights current approaches and future trends in the use of mass spectrometry to characterize protein therapies. As one of the most frequently utilized analytical techniques in pharmaceutical research and development, mass spectrometry has been widely used in the characterization of protein therapeutics due to its analytical sensitivity, selectivity, and specificity. This book begins with an overview of mass spectrometry techniques as related to the analysis of protein therapeutics, structural identification strategies, quantitative approaches, followed by studies involving characterization of process related protein drug impurities/degradants, metabolites, higher order structures of protein therapeutics. Both general practitioners in pharmaceutical research and specialists in analytical sciences will benefit from this book that details step-by-step approaches and new strategies to solve challenging problems related to protein therapeutics research and development.
