Liver proteome response to torpor in a basoendothermic mammal, Tenrec ecaudatus, provides insights into the evolution of homeothermy

October 6, 2021

Jane Khudyakov, Michael Treat, Mikayla Shanafelt, Jared Deyarmin, Ben Neely, Frank van Breukelen
Many mammals use adaptive heterothermy (e.g., torpor, hibernation) to reduce metabolic demands of maintaining high body temperature (Tb). Torpor is typically characterized by coordinated declines in Tb and metabolic rate (MR) followed by active rewarming

Hi-C scaffolded short- and long-read genome assemblies of the California sea lion are broadly consistent for syntenic inference across 45 million years of evolution

Claire R. Peart, Christina Williams, Saurabh Pophaly, Jeremy Johnson, Ben Neely, Frances Gulland, David Adams, Bee Ng, William Cheng, Joseph Hoffman, Matthew Breen, Jochen Wolf
With the advent of chromatin-interaction maps, chromosome-level genome assemblies have become a reality for a wide range of organisms. Scaffolding quality is, however, difficult to judge. To explore this gap, we generated multiple chromosome-scale genome

Surveying the vampire bat (Desmodus rotundus) serum proteome: a resource for identifying immunological proteins and detecting pathogens

April 10, 2021
Author(s)
Ben Neely, Michael G. Janech, Alison Bland, Brock Fenton, Nancy B. Simmons, Daniel J. Becker
Bats (Order: Chiroptera) are increasingly studied as model systems for longevity and for their ability to seemingly tolerate typically virulent viruses without showing clinical disease. Yet our ability to characterize immune mechanisms of viral tolerance

Proteomics in non-model organisms: a new analytical frontier

August 9, 2020
Author(s)
Michelle Heck, Ben Neely
For the last century we have relied on model organisms to help understand fundamental biological processes. Now, with advancements in genome sequencing, assembly and annotation, non-model organisms may be studied with the same advanced bioanalytical

Progress and Challenges in Ocean Metaproteomics and Proposed Best Practices for Data Sharing

January 31, 2019
Author(s)
Mak Saito, Erin Bertrand, Megan Duffy, David Gaylord, Noelle Held, Judson Harvey, Robert Hettich, Pratik Jagtap, Michael G. Janech, Danie Kinkade, Dasha Leary, Matt McIlvin, Eli Moore, Robert Morris, Ben Neely, Brook Nunn, Jaclyn Sanders, Adam Shepherd, Nick Symmonds, David Walsh
Ocean metaproteomics is an emerging field that provides an exciting new datatype with potential to enable discoveries regarding marine microbial communities and their underlying impact on global biogeochemical processes. For example, recent ocean

C3a receptor antagonism as a novel therapeutic target for chronic rhinosinusitis

June 15, 2018
Author(s)
Jennifer K. Mulligan, Tucker Williamson, Nicholas Reaves, William Carroll, Sarah Stephenson, Peng Gao, Richard R. Drake, Ben Neely, Rodney J. Schlosser, Carl Atkinson
Background: Innate immune factors, including the complement system, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Here we examine complement activity within the respiratory mucosa of CRSwNP patients, and a
