Abstract
â¶ Hydrogen-exchange mass spectrometry (HX-MS) measures protein conformational mobility. â¶ Inactive vs active forms of the MAP kinase, ERK1, are compared by HX-MS. â¶ Kinase activation affects conformational mobility differently in related MAP kinases. â¶ Interdomain closure is constrained prior to activation of ERK2, but not ERK1. â¶ MAP kinases have distinct mechanisms for activation via control of protein motions.
