C-terminal amides mark proteins for degradation via SCFβFBXO31 - Nature
SCFβFBXO31 scans proteins for C-terminal amidation and marks them for subsequent proteasomal degradation.
scary but fascinating - cells have a degradation pathway that hunts down C-terminal scars (amides!) on damaged proteins. just wow. chemical biology plus CRISPR at its best. big congrats to all authors!

iAPEX: Improved APEX-based proximity labeling for subcellular proteomics using an enzymatic reaction cascade
Ascorbate peroxidase (APEX) is a versatile labeling enzyme used for live-cell proteomics at high spatial and temporal resolution. However, toxicity of its substrate hydrogen peroxide and background la...
Proud to share our work spear-headed by PhD student Tommy Sroka with major contributions by #xenopus expert Kerstin Feistel.
Our iAPEX #ProximityLabeling method for #MassSpec based subcellular #proteomics works by locally generating H2O2 using a D-amino acid oxidase that activates APEX2 in situ.
