Proteomics News and Research

RSS

The term 'proteome' was first coined in 1994, and refers to all the proteins in a cell, tissue, or organism. Proteomics refers to the study of the proteome. Because proteins are involved in almost all biological activities, the proteome is a rich source of biological information.

New Bruker-Biognosys collaboration aims to deliver advanced proteomics CRO services

Bruker Corporation and Switzerland-based Biognosys AG today announced a strategic partnership, in which Bruker has made a majority-ownership investment in Biognosys. Financial details were not disclosed. J.P.Morgan acted as exclusive financial advisor to Biognosys.

Study finds a novel therapeutic target for prevention and treatment of gout

Many Americans think of gout as a disease from a bygone era, akin to rickets or scurvy. The condition commonly afflicted the rich and royal, including American historical figures such as Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson.

Research project obtains nearly seven million to study factors that affect human immune system in early life

The first few months and years of life are crucial to the development of the human immune system. This is an important phase as the immune system can define which diseases individuals might develop later in life.

Researchers identify five plasma proteins related to severe COVID-19

Just as oil is essential to keep a car's motor running, blood is essential to keep the body functioning. The presence of particular proteins in the plasma, the liquid component of blood, may signal the presence of a disease or indicate the severity of a condition.

Proteomics approach helps identify protein signatures that can improve detection of prediabetes

Scientists have used a proteomics approach to identify a three-protein signature in the blood that can improve detection of isolated impaired glucose tolerance, a form of prediabetes.

Researchers provide insights on how to overcome resistance in cancer therapy

The latest developmental drugs, particularly for the use in oncology, rely on the targeted degradation of harmful pathogenic proteins.

Study reveals conserved and divergent host responses to infections with SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern

Researchers analyzed the phenotypes of the SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs), the molecular responses to infections from these VOCs, and the evolving virus-host interactions using a comparative genomic and proteomic approach.

Research suggests that ORF6 is a major SARS-CoV-2 innate immune antagonist

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* server, researchers in the United States demonstrated how severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) open reading frame 6 (ORF6) protein contributes to viral pathogenesis and modulates the host's immune responses.

Breakthrough discovery is a 'major step forward' in understanding cervical cancer

Scientists have discovered that cervical cancer can be divided into two distinct molecular subgroups – one far more aggressive than the other – as part of the largest 'omics' study of its kind, led by researchers at UCL and the University of Southampton.

21 Oct 2022

Multiomics analysis identifies immunobiomarkers for COVID-19 severity in outpatients

In a recent study published in the journal eLife, researchers showed the utility of machine-learning models in identifying early immune signatures, which could reliably predict clinical and immunological outcomes in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2)-infected outpatients.
