Excited to share our preprint describing hu.MAP3.0. Here we integrate >25k mass spectrometry experiments to place ~75% of human proteins into 15k protein complexes. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

hu.MAP3.0: Atlas of human protein complexes by integration of > 25,000 proteomic experiments

Macromolecular protein complexes carry out most functions in the cell including essential functions required for cell survival. Unfortunately, we lack the subunit composition for all human protein...

Why, yes, I DID manage to get Kim Kardashian and p53 in the same piece… My @ftopinion column on the Understudied Proteins Initiative, and why, despite the risk, science sometimes needs to take the road less-travelled. ft.com/content/73423d69-e815…

Superb from @anjahuja & so important @GeorgKus @EdinburghUni @wellcometrust ft.com/content/73423d69-e815…

To combat disease, science must look beyond the Kardashian of proteins

P53 is the most studied protein in the human body, but researchers are expanding their horizons
