Proteomics of sea bass skin-scales exposed to the emerging pollutant fluoxetine...
Anjos, L.; Estêvão, Dulce; Santos, S.; Santa, C.; Manadas, B.; Monsinjon, T.; Canario, Adelino; Power, Deborah; Pinto, Patricia ISTeleost fish skin-scales are essential for protection and homeostasis and the largest tissue in direct contact with the environment, but their potential as early indicators of pollutant exposure are hampered by limited knowledge about this model. This study evaluated multi-level impacts of in vivo exposure of European sea bass to fluoxetine (FLX, a selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitor and an emerging pollutan...
Mitochondria proteome profiling: a comparative analysis between gel- and gel-fr...
Ferreira, R.; Rocha, H.; Almeida, V.; Padrão, A.L.; Santa, C.; Vilarinho, L.; Amado, F.; Vitorino, R.Mitochondrial proteomics emerged aiming to disclose the dynamics of mitochondria under various pathophysiological conditions. In the present study we investigated the relative merits of gel-based (2DE and SDS-LC) and gel-free (2D-LC) protein separation approaches and protein identification algorithms (Mascot and Paragon) in the proteome profiling of mitochondria isolated from cultured fibroblasts, a sample trad...
Characterization of mitochondrial proteome in a severe case of ETF-QO deficiency
Rocha, H.; Ferreira, R.; Carvalho, J.; Vitorino, R.; Santa, C.; Lopes, L.; Gregersen, N.; Vilarinho, L.; Amado, F.Multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD) is a mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation disorder caused by mutations that affect electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) or ETF:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETF-QO) or even due to unidentified disturbances of riboflavin metabolism. Besides all the available data on the molecular basis of FAO disorders, including MADD, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying clin...
