Project description:The VericiDx cohort is an ongoing clinical trial (241 patients (32.0% self-reported AA) enrolled as of 06/30/2023) with a focus on predicting early acute rejection and renal fibrosis post-transplantation (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04727788).

Project description:Proteins at the cell surface are promising targets for cancer immunotherapies. While standard surface proteomics can be powerful for target discovery, even more fruitful is identifying cancer-specific surface protein features. To this end, we recently described a technology to identify cancer-specific protein three-dimensional conformations. In “structural surfaceomics”, we integrated XL-MS and surface protein biotinylation to identify the active conformation of integrin beta-2 as a promising cellular therapy target in acute myeloid leukemia (Mandal et al, Nature Cancer (2023)). However, we only applied structural surfaceomics to a single cancer model, and crosslink modeling was done manually. Here, we apply our technology to additional cancer models and implement an automated pipeline for crosslink characterization, AlphaCross-XL (Biswas et al, ASMS abstract (2023)).
Project description:Salt cress (Eutrema salsugineum, synonymously Thellungiella salsuginea) is an extremophile, a close relative of Arabidopsis. In order to understand the selective mechanisms that shape their complex traits underlying natural variation, we analyzed the physiological and proteomic differences between Shandong (SD) ecotype and Xinjiang (XJ) ecotype.
