Hyphenated mass spectrometry has been used to identify ligands binding to proteins. It involves mixing protein and compounds, separation of protein-ligand complexes from unbound compounds, dissociation of the protein-ligand complex, separation to remove protein, and injection of the supernatant into a mass spectrometer to observe the ligand. Here we report collision-induced affinity selection mass spectrometry (CIAS-MS), which allows separation and dissociation inside the instrument. The quadrupole was used to select the ligand-protein complex and allow unbound molecules to be exhausted to vacuum. Collision-induced dissociation (CID) dissociated the protein-ligand complex, and the ion guide and resonance frequency were used to selectively detect the ligand. A known SARS-CoV-2 Nsp9 ligand, oridonin, was successfully detected when it was mixed with Nsp9. We provide proof-of-concept data that the CIAS-MS method can be used to identify binding ligands for any purified protein.
