Probing the intracellular glutathione redox potential using in-cell NMR spectroscopy

January 2, 2014
Author(s)
Steve Y. Rhieu, Aaron A. Urbas, Daniel W. Bearden, John P. Marino, Vytautas Reipa, Katrice A. Lippa
Non-invasive and real-time analysis of cellular redox processes has been greatly hampered by lack of suitable measurement techniques. Here we describe an in-cell nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based method for measuring the intracellular glutathione

Carl G. Simon Jr., Wojtek J. Tutak, Sumona Sarkar, Tanya M. Farooque, Jyotsnendu J. Giri, Dongbo Wang, Sheng Lin-Gibson, Joachim Kohn, Durgadas Bolikal
Nanofiber scaffolds are effective for tissue engineering since they emulate the fibrous nanostructure of native extracellular matrix (ECM). Although electrospinning has been the most common approach for fabricating nanofiber scaffolds, airbrushing

Determining carbapenemase activity with 18O labeling and targeted mass spectrometry

Meiyao Wang, Yang Shen, Illarion Turko, Daniel Nelson, Shuwei Li
Carbapenems are broad spectrum antibiotics considered as last resort drugs to treat bacterial infections. Carbapenem-hydrolyzing β-lactamases (also called carbapenemases), however, can confer bacterial resistance and represent a serious health threat. Here

Comprehensive analysis of protein digestion using six trypsins reveals the origin of trypsin as a significant source of variability in proteomics

October 11, 2013

Stephen E. Stein, Paul A. Rudnick, Scott J. Walmsley, Qian Dong, Alexey I. Nesvizhskii, Yuxue Liang
Trypsin is an endoprotease commonly used for sample preparation in proteomics experiments. Importantly, protein digestion is dependent on multiple factors, including the trypsin origin and digestion conditions. In-depth characterization of trypsin activity
