A Method for Large-scale Identification of Protein Arginine Methylation*
The lack of methods for proteome-scale detection of arginine methylation restricts our knowledge of its relevance in physiological and pathological processes. Here we show that most tryptic peptides containing methylated arginine(s) are highly basic and hydrophilic. Consequently, they could be considerably enriched from total cell extracts by simple protocols using either one of strong cation e...
متن کاملA large-scale evaluation of computational protein function prediction
Automated annotation of protein function is challenging. As the number of sequenced genomes rapidly grows, the overwhelming majority of protein products can only be annotated computationally. If computational predictions are to be relied upon, it is crucial that the accuracy of these methods be high. Here we report the results from the first large-scale community-based Critical Assessment of pr...
متن کاملLysine methylation as a routine rescue strategy for protein crystallization.
Crystallization remains a critical step in X-ray structure determination. Because it is not generally possible to rationally predict crystallization conditions, commercial screens have been developed which sample a wide range of crystallization space. While this approach has proved successful in many cases, a significant number of proteins fail to crystallize despite being soluble and monodispe...
متن کاملAutomated large scale evaluation of protein structure predictions.
Evaluation and assessment are critical issues in CASP experiments. Automated procedures are necessary to compare a large number of predictions with the target folds. The evaluation has to reveal the maximum extent of similarity between predictions and targets, it should be applicable across prediction categories, and it should be transparent and accessible to a wide community. Here we present a...
متن کاملunravelling over-represented amino acids in protein structure of allergen proteins; a large-scale study
allergens are proteins or glycoproteins which make widespread disorders that can lead to a systemic anaphylactic shock and even death within a short period of time. understanding the protein features that are involved in allergenicity is important in developing future treatments as well as engineering proteins in genetic transformation projects. a big dataset of 1439 protein features from 761 p...
