PeptideAtlas is a proteomics data resource that gathers tandem mass spectrometry datasets from around the world, reprocesses them with the Trans-Proteomic Pipeline, and makes the combined result freely available to the community. Peptide Atlas is...
The PRIDE (PRoteomics IDEntifications database) is a public data repository of mass spectrometry-based proteomics data, and is maintained by the European Bioinformatics Institute as part of the Proteomics Team. Originally designed by Lennart Martens...
Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins. The proteome is the entire set of proteins produced or modified by an organism or system. Proteomics is an interdisciplinary field that covers the exploration of proteomes from the overall level of...
The Human Proteome Project (HPP) is a collaborative effort coordinated by the Human Proteome Organization. Its stated goal is to experimentally observe all of the proteins produced by the sequences translated from the human genome.
Nonribosomal peptides (NRP) are a class of peptide secondary metabolites, usually produced by microorganisms like bacteria and fungi. Nonribosomal peptides are also found in higher organisms, such as nudibranchs, but are thought to be made by...
Biological databases are stores of biological information. The journal Nucleic Acids Research regularly publishes special issues on biological databases and has a list of such databases. The 2018 issue has a list of about 180 such databases and...
Eloralintide (LY3841136) is an experimental drug that works as a selective amylin receptor agonist. It was designed to activate the amylin receptor without off-target effects at the calcitonin receptor. In a recent US randomised controlled trial of...
Vasoactive intestinal peptide, also known as vasoactive intestinal polypeptide or VIP, is a peptide hormone that is vasoactive in the intestine. VIP is a peptide of 28 amino acid residues that belongs to a glucagon/secretin superfamily, the ligand...
Myomesin-2, also known as M-protein, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYOM2 gene. M-protein is expressed in adult cardiac muscle and fast skeletal muscle, and functions to stabilize the three-dimensional arrangement of proteins...
Dynorphins (Dyn) are a class of opioid peptides that arise from the precursor protein prodynorphin. When prodynorphin is cleaved during processing by proprotein convertase 2 (PC2), multiple active peptides are released: dynorphin A, dynorphin B, and...
