The interactions of bacteriophage T4 regA protein, a unique translational regulator, with RNAs of various size and sequence were studied using electrospray ionization–Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance–mass spectrometry. Using very gentle interface conditions, regA/RNA complexes with a 1:1 binding stoichiometry were observed for all four target RNAs studied, consistent with solution binding studies. Competitive binding of target RNAs and their degradation products with regA demonstrated that the loss of a single nucleotide resulted in a dramatic change in binding affinity in some cases. Competitive binding of regA with four target RNAs revealed similar relative binding affinity order to that suggested by previousin vitrorepression experiments. The use of sustained off-resonance irradiation for collisionally induced dissociation of a regA/RNA complex suggested the potential for directly obtaining information regarding the regA binding domain.
