Dynamic protein complexes: insights from mass spectrometry.
The recent sequencing of the human genome has revealed that the human cell contains only twice the number of genes as the worm or fly (1). This implies that the regulation of gene products as well as their interactions accounts for the increased biological complexity of higher organisms. Consequently to exploit the wealth of information provided by genome sequencing it is essential to be able t...
متن کاملA Study of the Complexation of Mercury(II) with Dicysteinyl Tetrapeptides by Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry.
In this study we evaluated a method for the characterization of complexes, formed in different relative ratios of mercury(II) to dicysteinyl tetrapeptide, by electrospray ionization orbitrap mass spectrometry. This strategy is based on previous successful characterization of mercury-dicysteinyl complexes involving tripeptides by utilizing mass spectrometry among other techniques. Mercury(II) ch...
متن کاملassociation of body mass index with oxidative stress in patients with type 2 diabetes: do apolipoprotein a-ii -265t > c polymorphism alter this association?
b a ckground: to compare the oxidative stress (os) factors in obese and non- obese subjects with type 2 diabetes (t2d) and to evaluate the interaction between the apolipoprotein a-ii (apo a-ii) - 265t > c polymorphism and body mass index (bmi) on os factors. m ethods : in this comparative cross-sectional study, 21 diabetes centers in tehran, iran were studied. 180 patients with t2d were divide...
متن کامل13C- and 15N-Labeling Strategies Combined with Mass Spectrometry Comprehensively Quantify Phospholipid Dynamics in C. elegans
Membranes define cellular and organelle boundaries, a function that is critical to all living systems. Like other biomolecules, membrane lipids are dynamically maintained, but current methods are extremely limited for monitoring lipid dynamics in living animals. We developed novel strategies in C. elegans combining 13C and 15N stable isotopes with mass spectrometry to directly quantify the repl...
متن کاملApolipoprotein C-III0 lacks carbohydrate residues: use of mass spectrometry to study apolipoprotein structure.
Apolipoprotein C-III (apo C-III) is a 79 amino acid glycoprotein. The sugar moiety of apoC-III is attached to amino acid residue 74 and is thought to consist of 1 mole of galactose, 1 mole of N-acetyl-galactosamine, and either 0, 1, or 2 moles of sialic acid. This results in three isoproteins called C-III0, C-III1, and C-III2 designated by the number of sialic acid residues. It has been assumed...
