We present a method for peptide and protein identification based on LC-MS profiling. The method identified peptides at high-throughput without expending the sequencing time necessary for CID spectra based identification. The measurable peptide properties of mass and liquid chromatographic elution conditions are used to characterize and differentiate peptide features, and these peptide features are matched to a reference database from previously acquired and archived LC-MS/MS experiments to generate sequence assignments. The matches are scored according to the probability of an overlap between the peptide feature and the database peptides resulting in a ranked list of possible peptide sequences for each peptide submitted. This method resulted in 6 times more peptide sequence identifications from a single LC-MS analysis of yeast than from shotgun peptide sequencing using LC-MS/MS.

() exhibits aberrant changes in patients with colitis, and it has been reported to dominate the colonic mucosal immune response. Here, we found that PMA1 expression was significantly increased in from patients with IBD compared to that in healthy controls. A Crispr-Cas9-based fungal strain editing system was then used to knock out PMA1 expression in .

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a neuromuscular disease with an overall incidence of between 1 in 5,000 newborn males. Carriers may manifest progressive muscle weakness, resulting from the progressive degeneration of skeletal muscles, generating cardiac and respiratory disorders. Considering the lack of effective treatments, different therapeutic approaches have been developed, such as protein synthesis and extracellular matrix derivatives that can be used to improve muscle regeneration, maintenance, or repair.

Due to the short de Broglie wavelength of electrons compared with X-rays, the curvature of their Ewald sphere is low, and individual electron diffraction patterns are nearly flat in reciprocal space. As a result, a reliable unit-cell determination from a set of randomly oriented electron diffraction patterns, an essential step in serial electron diffraction, becomes a non-trivial task. Here we describe an algorithm for unit-cell determination from a set of independent electron diffraction patterns, as implemented in the program PIEP (Program for Interpreting Electron diffraction Patterns), written in the early 1990s.

Biomimetic neural substitutes, constructed through the bottom-up assembly of cell-matrix modulus via 3D bioprinting, hold great promise for neural regeneration. However, achieving precise control over the fate of neural stem cells (NSCs) to ensure biological functionality remains challenging. Cell behaviors are closely linked to cellular dynamics and cell-matrix mechanotransduction within a 3D microenvironment.

Cysteine thioesters are involved in a myriad of central biological transformations due to their unique reactivity. Despite their well-studied properties, we discovered an unexpected transamidation reaction of cysteine thioesters that leads to peptide backbone cleavage. -Acylcysteine-containing peptides were found to spontaneously fragment by cleavage of the amide bond in the -1 position to the acylated cysteine residue at pH 8-10.
