The skin mucus of fish is an important part of the innate immune system, which is poorly understood at the proteomic level. The study established a complete map of the proteins in the skin mucus of () and discussed the Differentially Expressed Proteins (DEPs) after () infection. Using Label Free Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis, a total of 126 proteins were identified as differentially expressed, 89 proteins of which were upregulated, and 37 proteins were downregulated.

Biotinidase deficiency is an autosomal recessively inherited disorder that is characterized by the failure to recycle biotin. Many of the known mutations that cause profound biotinidase deficiency are due to missense mutations that alter amino acids that are presumably important for proper enzyme function. Amino acids essential for biotinidase activity are likely conserved in species that are dependent on biotin recycling.

Background: The practice of screening the neonatal population for certain diseases by biochemical testing of a dried blood spot is an established public health initiative in many countries. The diseases for which screening is done vary from region to region, based on ethnic, financial and political considerations. Criteria have been established to identify diseases suitable for neonatal screening.

A search of protein databases revealed amino acid homologies among human biotinidase, bacterial aliphatic amidases, and bacterial and plant nitrilases. Amino acids YRK(210-212) of biotinidase are conserved among the enzyme families. This homology and naturally occurring mutations that cause biotinidase deficiency suggest that this region is essential for enzyme activity and is conserved from bacteria.
