This is not a bug but a feature of BibTeX, which does not capitalize
words in article titles (as recommended by various style manuals). To
force capitalization when BibTeX would prefer not to, use braces, like
this:
title = { Mapping posttranscriptional modifications in {5S} ribosomal
{RNA} by {MALDI} mass spectrometry. }
Exporting to LaTeX doesn't help any, since LaTeX is the source of the
feature.
