Almost all living things have adapted to earth’s day and night rhythm by keeping time with a biological clock. The biological clock of cyanobacteria, known as the Kai system, is one of the simplest known to date, and is therefore intensively studied by theoretical biologists...
Experts in proteomics from Utrecht University and next-generation DNA sequencing from the Hubrecht Institute/UMC Utrecht collaborated in a study to systematically determine the consequences of genetic variation on the transcriptome and proteome. The researchers applied ultra-deep quantitative proteomics, whole genome sequencing and RNA-seq to liver...
Take a moment to view this brief Dutch film about NPC scientific director Albert Heck and his research group (Utrecht University)!...
Next-generation proteomics: towards an integrative view of proteome dynamics The proteome is extremely multifaceted due to splicing and protein modifications, further amplified by the interconnectivity of proteins into complexes and signaling networks that are highly divergent in time and space. Proteome analysis heavily relies on mass...
In February this year our group participated in a promotional video clip for Dell in which they present their recently obtained data storage cluster for proteomics data. When a fluorescent sea anemone glows on a coral reef, it’s using a protein. When we move, proteins help...
