In this work, the conformational behavior of ribonuclease Sso7d is studied as a function of chirality of its constituting amino acids. Both optimized structures (using molecular mechanics with the CHARMM force field) and dynamic behavior (obtained by molecular dynamic simulations) are compared.

The Enzyme Effect: Broadening the Horizon of MS Optimization to Nontryptic Digestion in Proteomics.
J Am Soc Mass Spectrom

MS Proteomics Research Group, HUN-REN Research Centre for Natural Sciences, Magyar Tudósok körútja 2, H-1117 Budapest, Hungary.
In recent years, alternative enzymes with varied specificities have gained importance in MS-based bottom-up proteomics, offering orthogonal information about biological samples and advantages in certain applications. However, most mass spectrometric workflows are optimized for tryptic digests. This raises the questions of whether enzyme specificity impacts mass spectrometry and if current methods for nontryptic digests are suboptimal.

The activities of various enzymes play pivotal roles in determining the malting quality, as they drive the biochemical processes responsible for converting barley saccharides and proteins into fermentable sugars and amino acids during the malting process. In this study, 14 malting barley cultivars were used to investigate the relationship between enzyme activities and malting quality traits.

Influenza A and B viruses represent significant global health threats, contributing substantially to morbidity and mortality rates. However, a comprehensive understanding of the molecular epidemiology of these viruses in Brazil, a continental-size country and a crucial hub for the entry, circulation, and dissemination of influenza viruses within South America, still needs to be improved. This study addresses this gap by consolidating data and samples across all Brazilian macroregions, as part of the Center for Viral Surveillance and Serological Assessment project, together with an extensive number of other Brazilian sequences provided by a public database during the epidemic seasons spanning 2021-23.

Background: Lysinuric protein intolerance (LPI) is a metabolic disorder that leads to dysfunctional intestinal absorption and kidney clearance of cationic amino acids. Chronic kidney disease develops in many LPI patients and leads to end-stage kidney disease in at least 10% of patients. Since data on kidney transplants in LPI patients are limited, we analysed the outcomes of LPI patients after transplantation in Finland.
