Hotspot Hunter: a computational system for large-scale screening and selection of candidate immunological hotspots in pathogen proteomes [PDF]
Background: T-cell epitopes that promiscuously bind to multiple alleles of a human leukocyte antigen (HLA) supertype are prime targets for development of vaccines and immunotherapies because they are relevant to a large proportion of the human population.

Bioinformatics Approach for Pattern of Myelin-Specific Proteins and Related Human Disorders [PDF]
Background: Recent neuroinformatic studies, on the structure-function interaction of proteins, causative agents basis of human disease have implied that dysfunction or defect of different protein classes could be associated with several related diseases.

Fully denaturing two-dimensional electrophoresis of membrane proteins: a critical update [PDF]
The quality and ease of proteomics analysis depends on the performance of the analytical tools used, and thus of the performances of the protein separation tools used to deconvolute complex protein samples.

Single‐Cell Nanodroplet Processing Proteomics Pipeline for Analysis of Human‐Derived Microglia
ABSTRACT Single‐cell omics tools provide unique insights into heterogeneous cell populations and their responses to stimuli. For example, single‐cell RNA sequencing has identified several transcriptionally distinct populations of microglia, which are resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS) that are responsive to CNS injury, infection,

ABSTRACT Absence of the endosomal SNAREs vti1a and vti1b results in perinatal death and severe neuronal phenotypes in mice, while lack of one of these proteins results in minor phenotypes. Proteomic differences were investigated to obtain a deeper insight into processes in which vti1a and vti1b are involved.

Disease modeling requires appropriate cellular models that best mimic the underlying pathophysiology. Human origin and an adequate expression of the disease protein are pre-requisites that support information from a model to be meaningful.

Evaluating Protein Enrichment Methods to Improve Biomarker Discovery in Equine Cerebrospinal Fluid
Here, we compared two protein enrichment methods—ProteoMiner Small‐Capacity and PreOmics Enrich‐iST—for proteomic analysis of equine cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). PreOmics Enrich‐iST achieved superior depletion of high‐abundance proteins and identified a greater number of low‐abundance, neuropathology‐relevant proteins than ProteoMiner or native digestion.

Functional Genomic and Proteomic Analysis Reveals Disruption of Myelin-Related Genes and Translation in a Mouse Model of Early Life Neglect [PDF]
Early life neglect is an important public health problem which can lead to lasting psychological dysfunction. Good animal models are necessary to understand the mechanisms responsible for the behavioral and anatomical pathology that results. We recently described a novel model of early life neglect, maternal separation with early weaning (MSEW), that ...

Phosphoproteomic differences in major depressive disorder postmortem brains indicate effects on synaptic function [PDF]
There is still a lack in the molecular comprehension of major depressive disorder (MDD) although this condition affects approximately 10% of the world population.
