• Applications of iTRAQ-Based Peptidomics in Inflammation Research
iTRAQ is an isobaric isotope-labeling strategy that covalently labels peptide N-termini and lysine side chains. Through 4-plex or 8-plex multiplex labeling, iTRAQ enables simultaneous relative quantification of multiple samples. In tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), these isobaric tags fragment to generate characteristic reporter ions, allowing accurate comparison of peptide abundance across different treatment groups. iTRAQ-based peptidomics has been widely applied in inflammation research, including ......

• What is Histone Malonylation and How Does It Work?
In life science research, histone modifications have long been central to epigenetic studies. Histones, as the primary structural proteins of chromatin, undergo chemical modifications that not only regulate chromatin compaction but also influence gene expression, cell differentiation, and disease progression. In recent years, a novel modification termed histone propionylation (Hpr) has emerged as a prominent focus of research. Basic Concept of Histone Propionylation Histone propionylation is an acyla......
