Out Now! Conserved CD4+ T cell staphylococcal and streptococcal epitopes enable broad-acting vaccines in mice #MicroSky
Monoclonal antibodies against pseudaminic acid (Pse) – present in bacterial LPS, capsular polysaccharides, and glycoproteins – have been developed that enable Pse glycoproteome profiling and show therapeutic potential #glycotime

Really happy to see this work out!
Super fun project with a great team. For me the highlight was that we finally were able to show the O-linked glycosylation systems of H. pylori/C. jejuni are general glycosylation systems which target non-flagellin proteins (suggest >10 years ago by click chem).
Our #phosphoproteomics analysis of insulin signaling in bone uncovered a new mechanism of transcriptional activation via S6K phosphorylation of AFF4. It appears to play a role in regulating the expression of genes in ageing and insulin resistance. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
🚨 Our new paper is out today in Nature Chemical Biology:
“Pan-specific antibodies to uncover bacterial pseudaminylation”
doi.org/10.1038/s415...
This is the product of a collaboration between many teams, led by @nickescott.bsky.social, @payneresearch.bsky.social and myself.

Protein:protein interactions are incredibly dynamic so how do we quantify and discover changes in native tissues? Our new study uses qXL-MS and PCP-MS to study dynamic remodeling of interactions following skeletal muscle insulin resistance. #MyoBlue #Proteomics www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Super thrilled to have this one accepted at AnalChem last week. Nice way to see out the end of the year. 🎉 #lipidomics #TeamMassSpec
Welcome to the club, what instrument are you generating the data on (QE?) can provide guidance, drop me an email.... Looking at the raw data, upping your AGC and using stepped nce is going to be your friend here
Postdoc position open!

Deadline: October 26th, 2025
We look forward to hearing from you!

Conventional proteomics searches struggle with many modifications and fully open searches may be difficult to interpret. We introduce a "detailed" mass offset search in #MSFragger boosting interpretability and localization especially in complex cases (e.g. FPOP data): www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
RIP Alan Marshall, one of the greatest mass spectrometrists ever, and a great human to boot.

Really nice to see this work finally out in print. This has been a long term project (> 3 years) in the lab to understand why we couldn't make a few mutants in the burkholderia o-linked glycan biosynthesis pathway. Special shout out to Leila who drove most of this work! www.jbc.org/article/S002...
Wait is that supposed to be a cid spectra (no charge reduction so doesn't look like a ExD)... I'm seeing z ions annotated...
📣 Calling all students! 📣
Did you know that ANZSMS have travel support for attending ANZSMS conferences and international mass spectrometry conferences? 😮
The deadline for students attending the 30th ANZSMS at AUS-oMicS this year is coming up next week, 18th March! 🚨
Congratulations!! Very well deserved!

Regardless of current events, highlighting trainees as they continue to excel is a joy.
We just added @emmajays.bsky.social's recent J_@asms.org publication about chemical deamidation from common proteomics buffer to our website, too.
Congrats Emmajay! #TeamMassSpec

Really cool stuff, this looks super specific to cys. Looking at the ms2 data do labelled peptides show any unique diagnostic ions?
Ha! Not my only bright jersey on this trip
For those interested in the distance cycled, not bad considering there was two days of travel in there
I rarely post personal things on here but it's my birthday and as it's the big 4-0 I've spent the week cycling in south east Asia which has been awesome.. 100% recommend cycling around Siem Reap in Cambodia
⏰ Time’s ticking! Only 2 weeks left to submit your oral presentation abstract for #AUSoMicS 2025!

not alot of tree cover in those photos but looks beautiful!
I’m looking for a postdoc with experience in #glycosyltransferases and/or yeast/insect #proteinexpression
A new EU pathfinder project begins on 1st February 2025.
Contact me if interested!
Oh man this hits way too close to me🤣
