Protein glycosylation and phosphorylation play essential roles in biological systems. The crosstalk of both glycosylation and phosphorylation on one protein represents an unveiled biological function. To realize the analyses of both glycopeptides and phosphopeptides, a simultaneous enrichment method of -glycopeptides, mono-phosphopeptides and multi-phosphopeptides was developed based on a multi-functional dual-metal centered zirconium metal-organic framework that provided multiple interactions for HILIC, IMAC, and MOAC for glycopeptides and phosphopeptides. Based on a careful optimization of sample loading and elution conditions for the simultaneous enrichment of glycopeptides and phosphopeptides with the zirconium metal-organic framework, a total of 1011 -glycopeptides derived from 410 glycoproteins and 1996 phosphopeptides including 741 multi-phosphopeptides derived from 1189 phosphoproteins could be identified from a HeLa cell digest. The simultaneous enrichment approach for glycopeptides and mono-/multi-phosphopeptides demonstrates the great potential of the combined interactions for HILIC, IMAC, and MOAC in integrated post-translational modification proteomics research.

Precise and rapid disease detection is critical for controlling infectious diseases like COVID-19. Current technologies struggle to simultaneously identify viral RNAs and host immune antibodies due to limited integration of sample preparation and detection. Here, we present acoustofluidic integrated molecular diagnostics (AIMDx) on a chip, a platform enabling high-speed, sensitive detection of viral immunoglobulins [immunoglobulin A (IgA), IgG, and IgM] and nucleic acids.

Inoculation with the PGPB Herbaspirillum seropedicae shapes both the structure and putative functions of the wheat microbiome and causes changes in the levels of various plant metabolites described to be involved in plant growth and health. Plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) can establish metabolic imprints in their hosts, contributing to the improvement of plant health in different ways. However, while PGPB imprints on plant metabolism have been extensively characterized, much less is known regarding those affecting plant indigenous microbiomes, and hence it remains unknown whether both processes occur simultaneously.

Immunochromatographic assays (ICAs) provide simple and rapid strategies for bacterial diagnosis but still suffer from the problems of low sensitivity and high dependency on paired antibodies. Herein, the broad-spectrum capture and detection capability of the antibody-free electropositive nanoprobe are clarified for bacteria for the first time and an ultrasensitive fluorescent ICA platform is constructed for the simultaneous diagnosis of multiple pathogens. A magnetic multilayer quantum dot nanocomposite with an amino-embedded SiO shell (MagMQD@Si) is designed to enrich bacteria from solutions effectively, offer high luminescence, and reduce background signals on test strips, thus greatly improving the sensitivity and stability of ICA technique for pathogen.

This study investigated the effects of fine-sized pork bone biochar particles on remediating As-contaminated soil and alleviating associated phytotoxicity to rice in 50-day short-term and 120-day full-life-cycle pot experiments. The addition of micro-nanostructured pork bone biochar (BC) pyrolyzed at 400 and 600 °C (BC400 and BC600) significantly increased the As-treated shoot and root fresh weight by 24.4-77.

Background: We previously described the enrichment of plasma exosome metabolites in CRPC, PCa, and TFC cohorts, and found significant differences in pyrimidine metabolites. The PMGs is associated with the clinical prognosis of several cancers, but its biological role in PCa is still unclear.
Methods: This study extracted 98 reliable PMGs, and analyzed their somatic mutations, expression levels, and prognostic significance.
