Proteins/peptides purification by a three-well OFFGEL electrophoresis with immobilized ultra narrow pH gradient gels

Hubert Girault, Liang Qiao, Fernando Cortes Salazar, Elena Tobolkina

Purification and desalting of protein and peptide samples by a three-well OFFGEL electrophoresis with immobilized ultra narrow pH gradient gels is proposed as a fast preparative strategy for proteomics. The gist of this strategy is to separate the proteins ...

Assigning the EPR Fine Structure Parameters of the Mn(II) Centers in Bacillus subtilis Oxalate Decarboxylase by Site-Directed Mutagenesis and DFT/MM Calculations

Ursula Röthlisberger, Pablo Campomanes Ramos

Oxalate decarboxylase (OxDC) catalyzes the Mn-dependent conversion of the oxalate monoanion into CO2 and formate. EPR-based strategies for investigating the catalytic mechanism of decarboxylation are complicated by the difficulty of assigning the signals a ...

Regulatory elements involved in the expression of competence genes in naturally transformable Vibrio cholerae

Melanie Blokesch, Mirella Lo Scrudato

BackgroundThe human pathogen Vibrio cholerae normally enters the developmental program of natural competence for transformation after colonizing chitinous surfaces. Natural competence is regulated by at least three pathways in this organism: chitin sensing ...

Spectroscopic studies of peptide fragments produced by collision-induced dissociation

Oleg Aseev

Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) combined with collision-induced dissociation (CID) is a key method for primary structure determination of peptides and proteins. Collisionally activated peptides undergo statistical dissociation, forming a series of backbon ...
