SWATH® Acquisition: On the Forefront of HIV-1 Research

World AIDS Day is held on the 1st December each year and is an opportunity for people worldwide to unite in the fight against HIV, show their support for people living with HIV, and to commemorate people who have died. World AIDS Day was the first ever global health day, held for the first time in 1988.

A research team at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) is using SWATH Acquisition to advance a host-oriented antiviral strategy that targets the biomolecules required for viral replication.

Using SWATH for quantitative proteomics together with bioinformatic analyses to identify host proteins, the team quantified the expression of 3,608 proteins in uninfected and HIV-1-infected monocyte-derived microphages.

Of these, they found that 420 were significantly altered upon HIV-1 infection, and the findings highlighted a novel set of proteins and processes that are involved in the host response to HIV-1 infection.

In this informative presentation, you’ll learn:

  • How to design a SWATH spectral library for a nucleic acid binding protein interactome using whole cell lysates
  • A unique informatics strategy that takes advantage of SWATH measurement reproducibility to overcome biological variations in compared samples

 

Guide decisions during cell line development with more information at the intact level

Monitoring product quality attributes (PQAs) throughout monoclonal antibody (mAb) development is vital to ensuring drug safety and efficacy. By adopting orthogonal analytical techniques and integrating new technologies that have the potential to provide more information, it is possible to improve product quality and manufacturing efficiency and make more informed decisions.

Better mRNA-LNPs: encapsulation efficiency, mRNA integrity and purity, lipid N-oxides and beyond

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are widely used vehicles for mRNA-based therapeutics and vaccines. However, ionizable lipids used in LNPs can be susceptible to N-oxide impurities that can cause functional loss of the mRNA cargo.

Maximize NPS analysis with accurate mass spectrometry

LC-MS/MS is a powerful analytical tool in forensic toxicology testing that can support a variety of testing regimes such as screening, confirmation and quantitative workflows. More specifically, analysis of NPS using LC-MS/MS provides many advantages, including the ability to reliably detect new drugs and their metabolites from a variety of biological matrices.
