Protein-protein interfaces play fundamental roles in the molecular mechanisms underlying pathophysiological pathways and are important targets for the design of compounds of therapeutic interest. However, the identification of binding sites on protei...
In tandem mass spectrometry-based proteomics, proteins are digested into peptides by specific protease(s), but generally only a fraction of peptides can be detected. To characterize detectable proteotypic peptides, we have developed a series of metho...
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) costimulatory domains derived from native immune receptors steer the phenotypic output of therapeutic T cells. We constructed a library of CARs containing ~2300 synthetic costimulatory domains, built from combinations ...
Phosphoproteomics integrating data-independent acquisition (DIA) enables deep phosphoproteome profiling with improved quantification reproducibility and accuracy compared to data-dependent acquisition (DDA)-based phosphoproteomics. DIA data mining he...

Free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFAR1 or GPR40) has attracted attention for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, and various small-molecule agonists have been developed. However, most FFAR1 agonists as well as endogenous ligands, such as linoleic a...
The presence of pathogen-specific antibodies in an individual's blood-sample is used as an indication of previous exposure and infection to that specific pathogen (e.g., virus or bacterium). Measurement of the diagnostic antibodies is routinely achie...

An epidemic caused by COVID-19 in China turned into pandemic within a short duration affecting countries worldwide. Researchers and companies around the world are working on all the possible strategies to develop a curative or preventive strategy for...
In combinatorial chemical approaches, optimizing the composition and arrangement of building blocks toward a particular function has been done using a number of methods, including high throughput molecular screening, molecular evolution, and computat...
Data-independent acquisition (DIA) is an emerging technology for quantitative proteomic analysis of large cohorts of samples. However, sample-specific spectral libraries built by data-dependent acquisition (DDA) experiments are required prior to DIA ...
This study was aimed to introduce a novel algorithm for determining linear B- and T-cell epitopes from Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) antigens. To this end, 387 approved B- and T-cell epitopes, as well as 331 non-epitope peptides from...
