Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Conventional cancer treatment relies on radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but both methods bring severe side effects to patients, as these therapies not only attack cancer cells but also damage nor...
Metaproteomics is becoming widely used in microbiome research for gaining insights into the functional state of the microbial community. Current metaproteomics studies are generally based on high-throughput tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) coupled wi...
Anticancer peptides (ACPs) are a kind of bioactive peptides which could be used as a novel type of anticancer drug that has several advantages over chemistry-based drug, including high specificity, strong tumor penetration capacity, and low toxicity ...
Trypsin is one of the most important and widely used proteolytic enzymes in mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomic research. It exclusively cleaves peptide bonds at the C-terminus of lysine and arginine. However, the cleavage is also affected by seve...
Characterizing the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) bound ligandome by mass spectrometry (MS) holds great promise for developing vaccines and drugs for immune-oncology. Still, the identification of non-tryptic peptides presents substantial computational...
