Abstract
The spectroscopy and photo-induced dissociation of flavin mononucleotide anions in vacuo are investigated over the 300-500 nm wavelength range. Comparison of the dependence of fragment ion yields as a function of deposited photon energy with calculated dissociation energies and collision-induced dissociation measurements performed under single-collision conditions suggests that a substantial fraction of photo-activated ions decompose through non-statistical fragmentation pathways. Among these pathways is the dominant photo-induced fragmentation channel, the loss of a fragment identified as formylmethylflavin. The fragment ion specific action spectra reveal electronic transition energies close to those for flavins in solution and previously published gas-phase measurements, although the photo-fragment yield upon excitation of the S2 ← S0 transition appears to be suppressed.

Abstract
A quadrupole ion trap (QIT) mass spectrometer has been modified and coupled with tunable laser excitation and highly sensitive fluorescence detection systems to perform fluorescence studies on mass-selected ions. Gaseous ions, generated using nanoelectrospray ionization (nano-ESI), are trapped in the QIT that allows optical access for laser irradiation. The emitted fluorescence is collected from a 5.0 mm diameter hole drilled into the ring electrode of the QIT and is directed toward the detection setup. Due to the small inner diameter (7.07 mm) of the ring electrode and a relatively large opening for fluorescence collection, a fluorescence collection efficiency of 2.3% is achieved. After some losses in transmission, around 1.8% of the emitted fluorescence reaches the detectors, more than any other similar instrument reported in the literature. This improved fluorescence collection translates to a much shorter measurement time for a fluorescence signal. Another key feature of this setup is the ability to perform a variety of fluorescence experiments on trapped ions including excitation and emission spectroscopy, lifetime measurement, and ion imaging. The capabilities of the instrument are demonstrated by measuring fluorescence spectra of dyes and biomolecules labeled with dyes in a range of different excitation and emission wavelengths, quantum yields, m/z, and different polarities. A fluorescence lifetime measurement and ion image of trapped rhodamine 6G cations are also shown. With a wide array of functionality and high fluorescence detection performance, this setup provides an opportunity to study biomolecular structures and photophysics of fluorophores in well-controlled environments.

Abstract
d-2-Hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 (PaD2HGDH) catalyzes the oxidation of d-2-hydroxyglutarate to 2-ketoglutarate, which is a necessary step in the serine biosynthetic pathway. The dependence of P. aeruginosa on PaD2HGDH makes the enzyme a potential therapeutic target against P. aeruginosa. In this study, recombinant His-tagged PaD2HGDH was expressed and purified to high levels from gene PA0317, which was previously annotated as an FAD-binding PCMH-type domain-containing protein. The enzyme cofactor was identified as FAD with fluorescence emission after phosphodiesterase treatment and with mass spectrometry analysis. PaD2HGDH had a kcat value of 11 s-1 and a Km value of 60 μM with d-2-hydroxyglutarate at pH 7.4 and 25 °C. The enzyme was also active with d-malate but did not react with molecular oxygen. Steady-state kinetics with d-malate and phenazine methosulfate as an electron acceptor established a mechanism that was consistent with ping-pong bi-bi steady-state kinetics at pH 7.4. A comparison of the kcat/Km values with d-2-hydroxyglutarate and d-malate suggested that the C5 carboxylate of d-2-hydroxyglutarate is important for the substrate specificity of the enzyme. Other homologues of the enzyme have been previously grouped in the VAO/PMCH family of flavoproteins. PaD2HGDH shares fully conserved residues with other α-hydroxy acid oxidizing enzymes, and these conserved residues are found in the active site of the PaD2HDGH homology model. An Enzyme Function Initiative-Enzyme Similarity Tool Sequence Similarity Network analysis suggests a functional difference between PaD2HGDH and human D2HGDH, and no relationship with VAO. A phylogenetic tree analysis of PaD2HGDH, VAO, and human D2HGDH establishes genetic diversity among these enzymes.
