Peptidomic discovery of short open reading frame–encoded peptides in human cells

TL;DR: A peptidomic strategy to detect short ORF (sORF)-encoded polypeptides (SEPs) in human cells is developed, and 90 SEPs are identified, 86 of which are novel, the largest number of human SEPs ever reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

How many human proteoforms are there

Ruedi Aebersold, +53 more
TL;DR: This work frames central issues regarding determination of protein-level variation and PTMs, including some paradoxes present in the field today, and uses this framework to assess existing data and ask the question, "How many distinct primary structures of proteins (proteoforms) are created from the 20,300 human genes?"
Journal ArticleDOI

P-Bodies: Composition, Properties, and Functions

TL;DR: Recent advances in understanding of the molecular composition of P-bodies, the interactions and processes that regulate P-body liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS), and the cellular localization of mRNA decay machinery are reviewed in the context of how these discoveries refine models ofP-body function.
Journal ArticleDOI

A human microprotein that interacts with the mRNA decapping complex

TL;DR: Modulation of NoBody levels reveals that its abundance is anti-correlated with cellular P-body numbers and alters the steady-state levels of a cellular NMD substrate, implicate NoBody as a novel component of the mRNA decapping complex and demonstrate potential functionality of a newly discovered microprotein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of human sORF-encoded polypeptides (SEPs) in cell lines and tissue.

TL;DR: The existence of nonannotated protein-coding human short open reading frames (sORFs) has been revealed through the direct detection of their sORF-encoded polypeptide (SEP) products as mentioned in this paper.
