Protein Inference and Protein Quantification: Two Sides of the Same Coin [PDF]
Motivation: In mass spectrometry-based shotgun proteomics, protein quantification and protein identification are two major computational problems. To quantify the protein abundance, a list of proteins must be firstly inferred from the sample. Then the relative or absolute protein abundance is estimated with quantification methods, such as spectral ...

Ermp1 is a putative metalloprotease from Schizosaccharomyces pombe and a member of the Fxna peptidases. Although their function is unknown, orthologous proteins from rats and humans have been associated with the maturation of ovarian follicles and ...

Is the intrinsic disorder of proteins the cause of the scale-free architecture of protein-protein interaction networks? [PDF]
In protein-protein interaction networks certain topological properties appear to be recurrent: networks maps are considered scale-free. It is possible that this topology is reflected in the protein structure. In this paper we investigate the role of protein disorder in the network topology.

Functional analysis of plant Mei2-like proteins : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Molecular techniques were used to analyse the function of a novel class of RNA-bindmg proteins in plants, termed Mei2-like. The biochemical function of this class of proteins is unclear Although the conserved presence of three RNA recognition motifs ...

Cdk1 restrains NHEJ through phosphorylation of XRCC4-like factor Xlf1 [PDF]
Eukaryotic cells use two principal mechanisms for repairing DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs): homologous recombination (HR) and nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ). DSB repair pathway choice is strongly regulated during the cell cycle.

Global Proteome Turnover Analyses of the Yeasts S. cerevisiae and S. pombe
Summary: How cells maintain specific levels of each protein and whether that control is evolutionarily conserved are key questions. Here, we report proteome-wide steady-state protein turnover rate measurements for the evolutionarily distant but ...

Refining the Protein-Protein Interactome using Gene Expression Data [PDF]
Proteins interact with other proteins within biological pathways, forming connected subgraphs in the protein-protein interactome (PPI). Proteins are often involved in multiple biological pathways which complicates interpretation of interactions between proteins.

The role of dynamin-related proteins in vacuole biogenesis in fission yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe) : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Dynamins are GTPases concerned with membrane tubulation and scission (Praefcke and McMahon, 2004). In the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the dynamin-related proteins (DRPs) Vps1 and Dnm1 act redundantly in peroxisome biogenesis (Jourdain et al.

Protein token: a dynamic unit in protein interactions [PDF]
In this study, we introduced a new unit, named "protein token", as a dynamic protein structural unit for protein-protein interactions. Unlike the conventional structural units, protein token is not based on the sequential or spatial arrangement of residues, but comprises remote residues involved in cooperative conformational changes during protein ...
