High-mass matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) combined with chemical cross-linking has the ability to monitor the ligand-dependent dimerization of the human estrogen receptor alpha ligand binding domain (hERalpha LBD) in solution. Because only ER ligands enhance the homodimer abundance
