New Publication from the Ruotolo lab!

A multi-disciplinary approach was employed to study Spy, a small ATP-independent chaperone that simultaneously acts as a protein foldase and holdase molecule. This work demonstrates the Spy chaperones mechanism is substrate specific and dependent on relative affinity for a proteins intermediate folding states which highlights the central and dynamic role that substrates have throughout the…

New Publication from the Ruotolo lab!

Through an extensive characterization of travelling wave ion mobility (TWIM) calibrations protocols using over 2500 experimental TWIM datasets, and ranging across several molecular classes spanning over 3.5 orders of magnitude in molecular mass, a robust calibration method has been developed that offers high-precision ccs measurements for existing and future TWIM instrumentation. Check our the publication…

New Publication from the Lab!

Native MS was used to determine the formation of prenylated FMN (prFMN) adducts via ligand dissociation experiments, presenting the first detailed kinetic analysis of a member of the recently identified and rapidly expanding family of prFMN-dependent decarboxylases. Check it out here!

Congratulations to Kristine and Carolina!

Congrats to Kristine Parson and Carolina Rojas Ramirez for winning poster presentation awards recently at the Chemistry Departments annual Karle Symposium! Great job to these ladies who participated in the Karle Symposium.
