ABSTRACT
Mass spectrometry is a spectroscopic technique for detecting the molecular weight of substances based on mass spectrometry equipment. Many types of mass spectrometry with different functions are widely used in scientific research and application technology development in various disciplines. In recent years, mass spectrometry has shown great potential in nucleic acid detection. In particular, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry has become a research hotspot due to its velocity, high throughput, and accuracy. The nucleic acid research by mass spectrometry is highlighted in single nucleotide polymorphism, gene mutation, DNA methylation analysis, and DNA copy number variations. This article reviews the research and application of mass spectrometry in nucleic acid detection and analysis to provide a reference for the development of new detection technology for nucleic acid based on mass spectrometry.
