Active Transport of Peptides Across the Intact Human Tympanic Membrane. [PDF]
, 2018 We previously identified peptides that are actively transported across the intact tympanic membrane (TM) of rats with infected middle ears. To assess the possibility that this transport would also occur across the human TM, we first developed and ...

From Synthetic Fragments of Endogenous Three-Finger Proteins to Potential Drugs
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2019 The proteins of the Ly6 family have a three-finger folding as snake venom α-neurotoxins, targeting nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), and some of them, like mammalian secreted Ly6/uPAR protein (SLURP1) and membrane-attached Ly-6/neurotoxin ...

Functionally important segments in proteins dissected using Gene Ontology and geometric clustering of peptide fragments [PDF]
, 2008 We have developed a geometric clustering algorithm using backbone \varphi,\psi angles to group conformationally similar peptide fragments of any length.

A Dynamic Programming Approach to De Novo Peptide Sequencing via Tandem Mass Spectrometry [PDF]
, 2001 The tandem mass spectrometry fragments a large number of molecules of the same peptide sequence into charged prefix and suffix subsequences, and then measures mass/charge ratios of these ions.

PLoS ONE, 2015 Heparanase is an endo-β-glucuronidase that cleaves heparan sulfate side chains from their proteoglycans. Thereby, heparanase liberates highly potent circulating heparan sulfate-fragments (HS-fragments) and triggers the fatal and excessive inflammatory ...

Collisional energy dependence of peptide ion fragmentation [PDF]
Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2009 The energy dependence of fragmentation in a collision cell was measured for 2400 protonated peptide ions derived from the digestion of 24 proteins. The collision voltage at which the sum of the fragment ion abundances was equal to the remaining parent ion (V(1/2)) was the principal measure of fragmentation effectiveness.

Fragment synthesis of disulfide-containing peptides
MethodsX, 2020 A new strategy for solid phase peptide synthesis in the fragment synthesis based on the use of 2-Cl-trityl resin as carrier to obtain protected peptide-resin and Rink Amide Resin, HOBT/HBTU or PyBOP/DIPEA or HATU/DIPEA as the coupling method is described. The highlights of this method are:•Simple.•Low cost.•Solid phase based.

Modeling peptide fragmentation with dynamic Bayesian networks for peptide identification [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2008 AbstractMotivation: Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) is an indispensable technology for identification of proteins from complex mixtures. Proteins are digested to peptides that are then identified by their fragmentation patterns in the mass spectrometer.
