Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease share common mechanisms characterized by protein misfolding and aggregation, including formation of plaques or inclusion bodies. The rapid growing number o ...
Tissue transglutaminase (tTGase) catalyzes both deamidation and transamidation of peptides and proteins by using a peptidyl glutamine as primary substrate. A precise consensus sequence for the enzyme is unknown and the ratio between deamidated and transami ...
MS (mass spectrometry) has been developed as an important analytical tool to study large molecules including polymer macromolecules and proteins. Its instrumentation technique including ionization methods, mass analyzer and detector systems has been greatl ...
Molecular probes for selective Identification of protein aggregates are important to advance our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis underlying cerebral amyloidoses. Here we report the chemical design of pentameric thiophene derivatives, denoted lu ...
Following a recent effort [J. Am. Soc. Mass Spectrom. 23, 386-396 (2012)], we continue to explore computational methodologies for generating molecular conformations to support collisional cross sections suggested by ion mobility measurements. Here, adaptiv ...
Peptide and protein ion abundances in mass spectrometry (MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) may provide orthogonal, or complementary, information to their mass measurements. Collision induced dissociation (CID), the most commonly used MS/MS technique ...
Mass spectrometry-based qualitative and quantitative (bio)molecular analysis is a corner stone in the state-of-the-art pipelines in systems biology and environmental sciences. High-resolution and efficient tandem mass spectrometry methods and techniques ar ...
The arene osmium metalla-prism (p-cymene)(6)Os-6(donq)(3)(tpt)(2) (2) (donq 5,8-dioxydo-1,4-naphthoquinonato, tpt 2,4,6-tri(pyridin-4-yl)-1,3,5-triazine) has been prepared from the dinuclear arene osmium precursor [(p-cymene)(2)Os-2(donq)Cl-2] ...
Electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry was used to analyze the reactions of metal compds. with mixts. of selected proteins. Three representative medicinally relevant compds., cisplatin, transplatin and the organometallic ruthenium compd. RAPTA-C, were r ...
