The editorial leadership team of the journal Molecular & Cellular Proteomics has chosen three investigators to present their research during a symposium at the 2020 ASBMB annual meeting in San Diego.

A special issue of Molecular & Cellular Proteomics features a collection of articles highlighting recent discoveries in sperm and egg biology in organisms from humans to insects — including the capacitation of crocodile sperm.

Using novel extraction methods and laser-capture microdissection, researchers found that even seemingly identical cells can have pronounced differences in protein levels. Read more about this paper in the journal Molecular & Cellular Proteomics.

Eczema lotion inspired by babies’ skin. Steps toward accessible vaccines. How staph bacteria steals iron. Read about these topics and more.

Researchers describe how they mapped organization of proteins within the mitochondria of mouse hearts, cataloging more than 3,000 interactions, in a paper in Molecular & Cellular Proteomics.

How amino acids determine cells’ responses climate change. How genes cause bile acid diarrhea. And how trypsin trips up researchers studying alternative splicing. Read about these topics and more in our roundup of recent papers from the Journal of B…

Alcohol plus hepatitis B raises cholesterol. A chemical cocktail reprograms mouse cells. Prion protein does more than wreak havoc. Read about these topics and more in our roundup of recent papers from the Journal of Biological Chemistry, the Journa…

In a study published in the journal Molecular & Cellular Proteomics, researchers aimed to delineate the changes that underlie a paradoxical effect seen in cancers that have mutations in a central member of the MAPK pathway.
