Background Papers and References

Numerous high-quality peer-reviewed journals are devoted to covering research in mass spectrometry. In particular (in no particular order):

• Journal of Mass Spectrometry (Wiley)
• Internationa$ Journal of Mass Spectrometry (Elsevier)
• Journal of The American Society for Mass Spectrometry (Elsevier)
• European Journal of Mass Spectrometry (IM Publications)
• Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry (Wiley)

There are also several peer-reviewed journals that are interested in proteomics research, including (also in no particular order):

• Journal of Proteomics (Elsevier)
• Journal of Proteome Research (ACS)
• Proteomics (Wiley)
• Journal of Proteomics & Bioinformatics (Open Access Journals)
• Proteomics (Wiley-VCH)
• The Open Proteomics Journal (Bentham Open)
• Molecular & Cellular Proteomics (American Society for Biochemistry & Molecular Biology)

Many review articles on mass spectrometry and proteomics can be found online, using literature resources such as NIH Pubmed. A few review articles that I find particularly useful include:

• Mass Spectrometry-Based Proteomics (Aebersold & Mann, 2003: Nature 422(6928):198-207)
