Regulated Inositol‐Requiring Protein 1‐Dependent Decay as a Mechanism of Corin RNA and Protein Deficiency in Advanced Human Systolic Heart Failure [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The compensatory actions of the endogenous natriuretic peptide system require adequate processing of natriuretic peptide pro‐hormones into biologically active, carboxyl‐terminal fragments.

The IkB kinase inhibitor nuclear factor-kB essential modulator–binding domain peptide for inhibition of balloon injury-induced neointimal formation [PDF]
Objective—The activation of nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) is a crucial step in the arterial wall’s response to injury. The identification and characterization of the NF-kB essential modulator– binding domain (NBD) peptide, which can block the activation of

MSFragger: ultrafast and comprehensive peptide identification in shotgun proteomics
There is a need to better understand and handle the 'dark matter' of proteomics—the vast diversity of post-translational and chemical modifications that are unaccounted in a typical mass spectrometry–based analysis and thus remain unidentified.

Candida albicans biofilm formation on peptide functionalized polydimethylsiloxane [PDF]
In order to prevent biofilm formation by Candida albicans, several cationic peptides were covalently bound to polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). The salivary peptide histatin 5 and two synthetic variants (Dhvar 4 and Dhvar 5) were used to prepare peptide ...

Hsc66 substrate specificity is directed toward a discrete region of the iron-sulfur cluster template protein IscU [PDF]
Hsc66 and Hsc20 comprise a specialized chaperone system important for the assembly of iron-sulfur clusters in Escherchia coli. Only a single substrate, the Fe/S template protein IscU, has been identified for the Hsc66/Hsc20 system, but the mechanism by ...
