Community Ecology: Top-Down Turned Upside-Down
Within African savannas, elephants often damage individual trees to the extent that they influence tree density. New research shows that mutualistic ants inhabiting certain species of Acacia protect trees from catastrophic herbivory by elephants. Protection by the ants stabilizes tree cover across savannas in what is otherwise a highly dynamic biome.
متن کاملSupport for Top - down Proteomics
Top-down proteomics is a revolutionary application for the identification and characterization of protein, known to be one of the most complicated and challenging issues in biology. In top-down proteomics, the quality and speed of the data warehouse is very important, as high accuracy results are returned by a database search. ProSight Warehouse fills the critical role as the data warehouse for...
متن کاملMass graphs and their applications in top-down proteomics
Although proteomics has made rapid progress in the past decade, researchers are still in the early stage of exploring the world of complex proteoforms, which are protein products with various primary structure alterations resulting from gene mutations, alternative splicing, post-translational modifications, and other biological processes. Proteoform identification is essential to mapping proteo...
متن کاملEfficient Interpretation of Tandem Mass Tags in Top-Down Proteomics
Mass spectrometry is the major analytical tool for the identification and quantification of proteins in biological samples. In so-called top-down proteomics, separation and mass spectrometric analysis is performed at the level of intact proteins, without preparatory digestion steps. It has been shown that the tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling technology, which is often used for quantification base...
متن کاملNeutron-Encoded Mass Signatures for Quantitative Top-Down Proteomics∥
The ability to acquire highly accurate quantitative data is an increasingly important part of any proteomics experiment, whether shotgun or top-down approaches are used. We recently developed a quantitation strategy for peptides based on neutron encoding, or NeuCode SILAC, which uses closely spaced heavy isotope-labeled amino acids and high-resolution mass spectrometry to provide quantitative d...
