METLIN: A Technology Platform for Identifying Knowns and Unknowns

TL;DR: METLIN now features in silico MS/MS data, which has been made possible through the creation of algorithms trained on METLIN's MS/ MS data from both standards and their isotope analogues, being designed to address the characterization of known and unknown molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteome-wide covalent ligand discovery in native biological systems

TL;DR: A quantitative analysis of cysteine-reactive small-molecule fragments screened against thousands of proteins in human proteomes and cells provides a greatly expanded portrait of the ligandable proteome and furnishes compounds that can illuminate protein functions in native biological systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Domain Swapping in Inducible Nitric-oxide Synthase ELECTRON TRANSFER OCCURS BETWEEN FLAVIN AND HEME GROUPS LOCATED ON ADJACENT SUBUNITS IN THE DIMER

TL;DR: Resonance Raman characterization of the heme-l-Arg interaction confirmed that E371A only prevents l-Arg binding in the mutated oxygenase domain, which implies that domain swapping occurs in an iNOS dimer to properly align reductase and oxygenase domains for NO synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Small-Molecule Activators of a Proenzyme

TL;DR: The identification and characterization of the first small molecules that directly activate proenzymes will enable direct control of the executioner caspases in apoptosis and in cellular differentiation and presage the discovery of other proen enzyme activators to explore fundamental processes of proenzyme activation and their fate-determining roles in biology.
