Analysis of native-like protein structures in the gas phase via native mass spectrometry and auxiliary techniques has become a powerful tool for structural biology applications. In combination with ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD), native top-down mass spectrometry informs backbone flexibility, topology, hydrogen bonding networks, and conformational changes in protein structure. Although it is known that the primary structure affects dissociation of peptides and proteins in the gas phase, its effect on the types and locations of backbone cleavages promoted by UVPD and concomitant influence on structural characterization of native-like proteins is not well understood. Here, trends in the fragmentation of native-like proteins were evaluated by tracking the propensity of 10 fragment types (, +1, , , , +1, , -1, , and ) in relation to primary structure in a native-top down UVPD data set encompassing >9600 fragment ions. Differing fragmentation trends are reported for the production of distinct fragment types, attributed to a combination of both direct dissociation pathways from excited electronic states and those surmised to involve intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution after internal conversion. The latter pathways were systematically evaluated to evince the role of proton mobility in the generation of "CID-like" fragments through UVPD, providing pertinent insight into the characterization of native-like proteins. Fragmentation trends presented here are envisioned to enhance analysis of the protein higher-order structure or augment scoring algorithms in the high-throughput analysis of intact proteins.
