Urinary markers for the assessment of kidney diseases in wild animals are limited, in part, due to the lack of urinary proteome data, especially for marine mammals. One of the most prevalent kidney diseases in marine mammals is caused by Leptospira

Background: Innate immune factors, including the complement system, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Here we examine complement activity within the respiratory mucosa of CRSwNP patients, and a

Membrane proteins are currently the most common targets for pharmaceuticals. However, characterization of their structural dynamics by hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX- MS) is sparse due to insufficient automated methods to handle full

Introduction: Mass spectrometry (MS) is widely used in the characterization of biomolecules including peptide and protein therapeutics. These biotechnology products have seen rapid growth over the past few decades and continue to dominate the global

Quantification of cardiac troponin I (cTnI), a protein biomarker used for diagnosing myocardial infarction, has been achieved in native patient plasma based on an immunoaffinity enrichment strategy and isotope dilution (ID) liquid chromatography-tandem

We describe the creation of a mass spectral library composed of all identifiable spectra derived from the tryptic digest of a therapeutic monoclonal antibody. The NISTmAb library is a unique reference peptide spectral library developed from a total of six

This article describes the crystal packing of the unliganded antibody fragment from the NIST reference antibody 8671, whose atomic coordinates are available as Protein Data Bank structure 5K8A [1]. Here we give information on the crystallization and

Cytochrome P450 46A1 (CYP46A1) converts cholesterol to 24-hydroxycholesterol and thereby controls the major pathways of cholesterol removal from the brain. Cyp46a1-/- mice have a reduction in the rate of cholesterol biosynthesis in the brain and
The increasing interest in extracellular vesicles (EVs) research is fueled by reports indicating their unique role in intercellular communication and potential connection to the development of common human diseases. The unique role assumes unique protein

We present a mass spectral library based method to identify tandem mass spectra of peptides that contain unanticipated modifications and amino acid variants. We describe this as a hybrid method since it combines matching both ion m/z and mass losses. The
As the speed and quality of different analytical platforms increase, it is more common to collect data across multiple biological domains in parallel (i.e., genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics). There is a growing interest in algorithms
