12 Jun Publication in Cell Reports
Last year two first drafts of the human proteome were made available [1,2]. These drafts provide an overview of all proteins detected in different cells and tissues of our body. As proteins are the prime molecular entities responsible for all biological processes these drafts tell...
11 May Seminars by Albert Heck at the Proteomics forum
Prof Albert Heck gave an interesting seminar at the Proteomics forum in Berlin (march 2015). You can view these seminars by following the youtube links below...
08 Apr First article published using the new Fusion MS
Top-down analysis of intact proteins by mass spectrometry provides an ideal platform for comprehensive proteoform characterization, in particular, for the identification and localization of post-translational modifications (PTM) co-occurring on a protein. One of the main bottlenecks in top-down proteomics is insufficient protein sequence coverage caused...
29 Dec Integrated OMICS approach reveals ROCK1 kinase as potential combinatorial drug target in BRAF mutant melanoma
In a recent, open access, article in Molecular Systems Biology researchers from the Biomolecular Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics Group at Utrecht University and The Netherlands Cancer Institute in Amsterdam, report on an integrated analysis of proteomic and phospho‐proteomic data from BRAF inhibitor‐treated melanoma cells and...
10 Dec Unprecedented cooperation cracks the programming of the cell
An international consortium including Prof. Albert Heck and former lab members Javier Munoz and Marco Benevento, has uncovered the molecular events underlying the biological processes of the creation of stem cells from specialized (e.g. skin) cells, a process called cellular reprogramming. The team also discovered...
30 Sep European Proteomics Pioneer Award for Albert Heck
The European Proteomics Association (EuPA) has awarded Albert Heck the Proteomics Pioneer Award 2014. This is the most prestigious award of the society. Heck is professor in Biomolecular Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics at Utrecht University and scientific director of the Netherlands Proteomics Centre and the...
08 Sep Heineken Lecture Prof Christopher Dobson
Prof Christopher Dobson, who has been awarded the 2014 Dr. H.P. Heineken Prize for Biochemistry and Biophysics (USD 200,000), will be visiting Utrecht University on September 29. Dobson will give a lecture about his research for uncovering the manner in which proteins in the human body...
