We also investigate different regions of the FT-ICR MS that impact ion transmission and desolvation. Finally, we demonstrate how the transmission of these species and resultant spectra are highly consistent with those previously generated on both quadrupole-ToF (Q-ToF) and Orbitrap instrumentation. This report serves as an impactful example of how FT-ICR mass analyzers are competitive to Q-ToFs and Orbitraps for high mass detection at high m/z.Proteins often have multiple switching domains that are coupled to each other and to the binding of ligands in order to realize signaling functions. Here we investigate the C2A domain of Synaptotagmin-1 (Syt-1), a calcium sensor in the neurotransmitter release machinery and a model system for the large family of C2 membrane binding domains. We combine extensive molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with Markov modeling in order to model conformational switching domains, their states, and their dependence on bound calcium ions. Then, we use transfer entropy to characterize how the switching domains are coupled via directed or allosteric mechanisms and give rise to the calcium sensing function of the protein. Our proposed switching mechanism contributes to the understanding of the neurotransmitter release machinery. Furthermore, the methodological approach we develop serves as a template to analyze conformational switching domains and the broad study of their coupling in macromolecular machines.Application of the aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA) on an extract/distillate from raw shiitake mushrooms revealed 32 odorants among which 3-(methylthio)propanal (cooked potato), 1-octen-3-one, and 1-octen-3-ol (both mushroom-like) showed the highest flavor dilution (FD) factors. An isotope enrichment experiment with raw shiitake tissue and either 13C18-linoleic acid or 2H4-1-octen-3-ol
