Glycoproteoforms are the unit of biological information in the glycoproteome, but measuring intact glycoproteins to capture combinatorial modification states remains a huge #glycotime challenge. @timveth.bsky.social tackled this issue head on in the latest preprint from @riley-research.bsky.social

This article published on International Day of Women and Girls in Science highlights that papers authored by women spend longer under peer review. Being aware of this means we can begin to fix it and create an equal system for all 🌟 www.the-scientist.com/women-s-rese... doi.org/10.1371/jour...

2025 ended with this paper being accepted by Analytical Chemistry! 😁 Please check out our article in its new home and learn how these multinanoparticle protein coronas grant us a deeper insight into the glycoproteome of different biofluids: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Can nanoparticles help us probe the glycoproteome? The new pre-print from @riley-research.bsky.social seeks to answer this question using the Proteograph technology from Seer Inc. Check out this lovely study on glycoproteins NP-enriched from biofluids here: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemr...

@riley-research.bsky.social had a great time catching up with local research at the Cascadia Proteomics Symposium last week. The lineup featured talks from Katie Kothlow and Haley Schramm, and a lightning talk/poster from @emmajays.bsky.social Congrats to Emmajay for her 2nd-place poster award too!

Had an amazing time at the Glycobiology Gordon Research Seminar and Conference in Italy! 🇮🇹 As a first-time attendee, I appreciated meeting so many incredible scientists from across the world. We spent the days talking about carbohydrates, and the nights eating them. 🍝 #Glycobiology #Glycotime

GlyCounter (and pre-print) from the @riley-research.bsky.social is now out to help inspect raw MS data for glycan-specific ions. Congrats to first author Katie Kothlow for leading this and to all RRG members who helped test GlyCounter's utility for numerous datasets! This was a great team effort.

A recent study found that cervical cancer deaths in young women have plummeted since the introduction of the human papillomavirus vaccine.

As Cervical Cancer Deaths Plummet, Experts Credit HPV Vaccine
HPV can cause a variety of cancers, including cervical. New mortality data for women under 25 point to the success of the HPV vaccine.

The erosion of trust in science & scientists — sometimes due to complex social/historical factors but often deliberately perpetrated by charlatans — has tragic, deadly consequences, and, if unchecked, is an existential threat to society.

Despite current events, @riley-research.bsky.social enjoyed @us-hupo.bsky.social last week! Connecting w/ colleagues was an antidote for the frustration that occupies a lot of my brain space these days Thanks for the continual motivation to pursue good science and support scientists however we can

My favorite takeaway from #USHUPO2025 so far?! Building a business is not too different from building a lab. Huge thanks to @lindsaykpino.com & @nmriley.bsky.social for hosting a phenomenal workshop on the business of starting a lab!!!

The final chapter of my PhD thesis is officially published!😄 It's a true reflection of collaborative research and I can't thank my PhD supervisor, Clarissa Melo Czekster, enough. Of course, the figures feature the most amount of pink probably seen in a research journal so please enjoy! rdcu.be/d7owS

The heterogeneity of HeLa cell-lines undermines reproducibility. HeLa cells were obtained without informed consent. ==> Researchers should avoid using HeLa cells unless required by a special justification.

Curious about artificial deamidation? Check out our updated preprint! tinyurl.com/ms6fz3sn Now with PBS as a 6th buffer + new K562 data + N-terminal Q -> pyro-Glu investigations. Take home message: Zwitterionic buffers like HEPES minimize unwanted artifacts! @riley-research.bsky.social

I sometimes forget how flexible proteins are. It becomes really apparent when you use NMR states for an animation. That poor cofactor is getting pushed around a lot 😅 #sciart #blender3d #biocatalysis

Question for my proteomics skywalkers: today I was chatting about enzymes that aren’t trypsin, and I know there’s plenty out there (including this fun paper, h/t @pastelbio.bsky.social), but any great ones that should be on my radar for bottom-up proteomics? pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Postproline Cleaving Enzymes also Show Specificity to Reduced Cysteine
In proteomics, postproline cleaving enzymes (PPCEs), such as Aspergillus niger prolyl endopeptidase (AnPEP) and neprosin, complement proteolytic tools because proline is a stop site for many proteases...
