Comprehensive Analysis of Tryptic Peptides Arising from Disulfide Linkages in NISTmAb and Their Use for Developing a Mass Spectral Library

June 22, 2021
Author(s)
Qian Dong, Xinjian Yan, Yuxue Liang, Sanford Markey, Sergey L. Sheetlin, Concepcion Remoroza, William E. Wallace, Stephen Stein
This work presents methods for identifying and then creating a mass spectral library for disulfide-linked peptides originating from the NISTmAb. Analysis involved both partially- reduced and non-reduced proteins under neutral and weakly basic conditions

Creation and Release of an Updated NIST DART-MS Forensics Database

June 17, 2021
Author(s)
Edward Sisco, Arun Moorthy, Laura M. Watt
Facing increasing caseloads and an everchanging drug landscape, forensic laboratories have been implementing new analytical tools. Direct analysis in real time mass spectrometry (DART-MS) is often one of these tools because it provides a wealth of

Copper-binding anticancer peptides from the piscidin family: an expanded mechanism that encompasses physical and chemical bilayer disruption

June 16, 2021
Author(s)
Fatih Comert, Frank N. Heinrich, Ananda Chowdhury, Mason Schoeneck, Caitlin Darling, Kyle Anderson, M. Daben J. Libardo, Alfredo Angeles-Boza, Vitalii I. Silin, Myriam Cotten, Mihaela Mihailescu
In the search for novel broad‑spectrum therapeutics to fight chronic infections, inflammation, and cancer, host defense peptides (HDPs) have garnered increasing interest. Characterizing their biologically‑active conformations and minimum motifs for

Trace element proxies and stable isotopes used to identify water quality threats to elkhorn coral (Acropora palmata) at two national parks in St. Croix, USVI

June 11, 2021
Author(s)
Amanda L. Bayless, Steven J. Christopher, Jennifer Ness, Colleen E. Bryan Sallee, Russell D. Day, Cheryl M. Woodley, C. Anna Toline
Chronic biological impairments of reef organisms have been documented at two national parks in St. Croix, USVI. Although several water quality parameters have been out of compliance with USVI water quality criteria, whether these parameters or other

Witnessing the survival of time-energy entanglement through biological tissue and media

June 9, 2021
Author(s)
Daniel J. Lum, Michael Mazurek, Alexander Mikhaylov, Kristen M. Parzuchowski, Ryan M. Wilson, Marcus Cicerone, Ralph Jimenez, Thomas Gerrits, Martin Stevens, Charles Camp
In this work, we demonstrate the preservation of time-energy entanglement of near-IR photons through thick biological media ( 1.55 mm) and tissue ( 235 um) at room temperature. Using a Franson-type interferometer, we demonstrate interferometric contrast of

A new measurement of the 122Sb half-life

June 5, 2021
Author(s)
Giancarlo D'Agostino, Marco Di Luzio, Nicholas Sharp, Massimo Oddone
Following significant discrepancies observed in rescaling collected 122Sb -peak count rates to a reference time by decay corrections, we looked at the literature supporting the presently recommended 2.7238(2) d 122Sb half-life value. The reading

Combining secondary ion mass spectrometry image depth profiling and single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to investigate the uptake and biodistribution of gold nanoparticles in Caenorhabditis elegans

May 20, 2021
Author(s)
Monique Johnson, Joe Bennett, Antonio Montoro Bustos, Shannon Hanna, Andrei Kolmakov, Nicholas Sharp, Elijah Petersen, Christopher Sims, Bryant C. Nelson, Patricia Lapasset
Analytical techniques capable of determining the spatial distribution and quantity (mass and/or particle number) of engineered nanomaterials in organisms are essential for characterizing nano-bio interactions and for nanomaterial risk assessments. Here, we
