Researchers at UGA provide first look at protein expression in Chagas disease-causing parasites

...on their utility as vaccine candidates." While the proteome analysis, in conjunction with the genome, provides new avenues for drug and vaccine discovery, limitations remain. Unlike the genome, which provides a comprehensive view of the entire organism, the proteomes are partial and preliminary. "Unfortunatel...

Scientists characterize proteome of human cornea

...ational group of researchers has characterized the proteome of the human cornea. In doing so, they have identified 141 distinct proteins, 99 of which had not been previously recognized in mammalian corneas. The details of their findings appear in the August/September issue of Molecular and Cellular Proteomics...

A catalogue of proteins

...ew proteins that comes with it. In this study, the proteome researchers looked at liver cells in mice. Using mass spectrometry, and by comparing databases, the scientists were able to detect more than 1400 proteins, localised in ten different cell compartments. Previous analyses had shown that certain protein...

The Center of Nutrigenomics of the TU Munich licences Genomatix Microarray Analysis Pipeline

...the genome at the levels of the transcriptome, the proteome and the metabolome in model organisms. We are very glad that we can use the Genomatix data analysis pipeline which starts from microarray raw data and integrates pathway and sequence analysis into a comprehensive biological picture. In addition, we a...

Study offers innovative profile of enzyme that aids tumor growth

...filing technologies that survey both the enzymatic proteome and its primary biochemical output, the metabolome," Cravatt said. So, the team drew both on proteomics-the large-scale study of the structure and function of proteins-and metabolomics-the systematic study of cellular processes, specifically their...
