Abstract
Sudden unexplained death (SUD) is not uncommon in forensic pathology. Yet, diagnosis of SUD remains challenging due to lack of specific biomarkers. This study aimed to screen differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) and validate their usefulness as diagnostic biomarkers for SUD cases. We designed a three-phase investigation, where in the discovery phase, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) heart specimens were screened through label-free proteomic analysis of cases dying from SUD, mechanical injury and carbon monoxide (CO) intoxication. A total of 26 proteins were identified to be DEPs for the SUD cases after rigorous criterion. Bioinformatics and Adaboost-recursive feature elimination (RFE) analysis further revealed that three of the 26 proteins (MYH6, COX5B and TNNT2) were potential discriminative biomarkers. In the training phase, MYH6 and COX5B were verified to be true DEPs in cardiac tissues from 29 independent SUD cases as compared with a serial of control cases (n = 42). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis illustrated that combination of MYH6 and COX5B achieved optimal diagnostic sensitivity (89.7 %) and specificity (84.4 %), with area under the curve (AUC) being 0.91. A diagnostic software based on the logistic regression formula derived from the training phase was then constructed. In the validation phase, the diagnostic software was applied to eight authentic SUD cases, seven (87.5 %) of which were accurately recognized. Our study provides a valid strategy towards practical diagnosis of SUD by integrating cardiac MYH6 and COX5B as dual diagnostic biomarkers.

Abstract
Proteins often interact with each other to form complexes and play functional roles in almost all cellular processes. The study of protein-protein interactions is therefore critical to understand protein function and biological pathways. Affinity Purification coupled with Mass Spectrometry (AP-MS) is an invaluable technique for identifying the interaction partners in protein complexes. In this approach, the protein of interest is fused to an affinity tag, followed by the expression and purification of the fusion protein. The affinity-purified sample is then analyzed by mass spectrometry to identify the interaction partners of the bait proteins. In this chapter, we detail the protocol for tandem affinity purification (TAP) based on the use of the FLAG (a fusion tag with peptide sequence DYKDDDDK) and hemagglutinin (HA) peptide epitopes. The immunoprecipitation using dual-affinity tags offers the advantage of increasing the specificity of the purification with lower nonspecific-background interactions.

Abstract
Proteogenomics refers to the integrated analysis of the genome and proteome that leverages mass-spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics data to improve genome annotations, understand gene expression control through proteoforms and find sequence variants to develop novel insights for disease classification and therapeutic strategies. However, proteogenomic studies often suffer from reduced sensitivity and specificity due to inflated database size. To control the error rates, proteogenomics depends on the target-decoy search strategy, the de-facto method for false discovery rate (FDR) estimation in proteomics. The proteogenomic databases constructed from three- or six-frame nucleotide database translation not only increase the search space and compute-time but also violate the equivalence of target and decoy databases. These searches result in poorer separation between target and decoy scores, leading to stringent FDR thresholds. Understanding these factors and applying modified strategies such as two-pass database search or peptide-class-specific FDR can result in a better interpretation of MS data without introducing additional statistical biases. Based on these considerations, a user can interpret the proteogenomics results appropriately and control false positives and negatives in a more informed manner. In this review, first, we briefly discuss the proteogenomic workflows and limitations in database construction, followed by various considerations that can influence potential novel discoveries in a proteogenomic study. We conclude with suggestions to counter these challenges for better proteogenomic data interpretation.

Abstract
A short open reading frame (sORFs) constitutes ≤ 300 bases, encoding a microprotein or sORF-encoded protein (SEP) which comprises ≤ 100 amino acids. Traditionally dismissed by genome annotation pipelines as meaningless noise, sORFs were found to possess coding potential with ribosome profiling (RIBO-Seq), which unveiled sORF-based transcripts at various genome locations. Nonetheless, the existence of corresponding microproteins that are stable and functional was little substantiated by experimental evidence initially. With recent advancements in multi-omics, the identification, validation, and functional characterisation of sORFs and microproteins have become feasible. In this review, we discuss the history and development of an emerging research field of sORFs and microproteins. In particular, we focus on an array of bioinformatics and OMICS approaches used for predicting, sequencing, validating, and characterizing these recently discovered entities. These strategies include RIBO-Seq which detects sORF transcripts via ribosome footprints, and mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics for sequencing the resultant microproteins. Subsequently, our discussion extends to the functional characterisation of microproteins by incorporating CRISPR/Cas9 screen and protein–protein interaction (PPI) studies. Our review discusses not only detection methodologies, but we also highlight on the challenges and potential solutions in identifying and validating sORFs and their microproteins. The novelty of this review lies within its validation for the functional role of microproteins, which could contribute towards the future landscape of microproteomics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The liver fluke Fasciola gigantica modulates several signaling pathways in infected buffaloes to facilitate its survival and establishment of persistent infection. In response to the parasite invasion, buffaloes activate innate and adaptive immune responses to counter the parasite infection. To detect new proteins that might be involved in the interaction between F. gigantica and the buffaloes, and that also might serve as biomarkers for fasciolosis, we used proteomic techniques to study the serum proteome of buffaloes during F. gigantica infection. Here, we used an isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ)-based quantitative proteomic approach to identify serum proteins that are differentially expressed in infected buffaloes compared to uninfected control buffaloes. Additionally, we applied a parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) assay to validate specific proteins identified by the iTRAQ method. RESULTS A total of 313, 459 and 399 proteins were identified at 3, 42 and 70 days post-infection, respectively; of these 92, 93 and 138 were differentially abundant proteins. Some of the identified differentially abundant proteins, including complement factor H related 5, complement component C6, complement component C7, amine oxidase, plasma serine protease inhibitor and lysozyme, are known to be involved in complement system activation, blood coagulation, platelet activation, lymphocyte's adhesion and lysozyme hydrolysis. Analysis of data for all three time points after infection identified six significantly upregulated proteins in infected serum that separated infected and uninfected buffaloes into distinct clusters. Further PRM analysis confirmed the expression of five proteins, namely MHC class I antigen, Beta-2-microglobulin, NID2 protein, Fetuin-B and Fibrinogen gamma-B chain. CONCLUSIONS These findings provide novel insights into the serum proteomics signature of buffaloes during F. gigantica infection.

Abstract
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a sudden, unexpected death that is caused by the loss of heart function. While SCD affects many patients suffering from coronary artery diseases (CAD) and heart failure (HF), a considerable number of SCD events occur in asymptomatic individuals. Certain risk factors for SCD have been identified and incorporated in different clinical scores, however, risk stratification using such algorithms is only useful for health management rather than for early detection and prediction of future SCD events in high-risk individuals. In this review, we discuss different molecular biomarkers that are used for early detection of SCD. This includes genetic biomarkers, where the majority of them are genomic variants for genes that encode for ion channels. Meanwhile, protein biomarkers often denote proteins that play roles in pathophysiological processes that lead to CAD and HF, notably (i) atherosclerosis that involves oxidative stress and inflammation, as well as (ii) cardiac tissue damage that involves neurohormonal and hemodynamic regulation and myocardial stress. Finally, we outline existing challenges and future directions including the use of OMICS strategy for biomarker discovery and the multimarker panels.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cancer changes the proteome in complex ways that reach well beyond simple changes in protein abundance. Genomic and transcriptional variations and post-translational protein modification create functional variants of a protein, known as proteoforms. Childhood cancers have fewer genomic alterations but show equally dramatic phenotypic changes as malignant cells in adults. Therefore, unraveling the complexities of the proteome is even more important in pediatric malignancies. Areas covered: In this review, the biological origins of proteoforms and technological advancements in the study of proteoforms are discussed. Particular emphasis is given to their implication in childhood malignancies and the critical role of cancer-specific proteoforms for the next generation of cancer therapies and diagnostics. Expert opinion: Recent advancements in technology have led to a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of tumorigenesis. This has been critical for the development of more effective and less harmful treatments that are based on direct targeting of altered proteins and deregulated pathways. As proteome coverage and the ability to detect complex proteoforms increase, the most need for change is in data compilation and database availability to mediate high-level data analysis and allow for better functional annotation of proteoforms.

Abstract
What was once expensive and revolutionary-full-genome sequence-is now affordable and routine. Costs will continue to drop, opening up new frontiers in behavioral genetics. This shift in costs from the genome to the phenome is most notable in large clinical studies of behavior and associated diseases in cohorts that exceed hundreds of thousands of subjects. Examples include the Women's Health Initiative (www.whi.org), the Million Veterans Program (www. RESEARCH va.gov/MVP), the 100 000 Genomes Project (genomicsengland.co.uk) and commercial efforts such as those by deCode (www.decode.com) and 23andme (www.23andme.com). The same transition is happening in experimental neuro- and behavioral genetics, and sample sizes of many hundreds of cases are becoming routine (www.genenetwork.org, www.mousephenotyping.org). There are two major consequences of this new affordability of massive omics datasets: (1) it is now far more practical to explore genetic modulation of behavioral differences and the key role of gene-by-environment interactions. Researchers are already doing the hard part-the quantitative analysis of behavior. Adding the omics component can provide powerful links to molecules, cells, circuits and even better treatment. (2) There is an acute need to highlight and train behavioral scientists in how best to exploit new omics approaches. This review addresses this second issue and highlights several new trends and opportunities that will be of interest to experts in animal and human behaviors.

Abstract
Resistance to β-lactams in Acinetobacter baumannii involves various mechanisms. To decipher them, whole genome sequencing (WGS) and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) were complemented by mass spectrometry (MS) in selected reaction monitoring mode (SRM) in 39 clinical isolates. The targeted label-free proteomic approach enabled, in one hour and using a single method, the quantitative detection of 16 proteins associated with antibiotic resistance: eight acquired β-lactamases (i.e. GES, NDM-1, OXA-23, OXA-24, OXA-58, PER, TEM-1, and VEB), two resident β-lactamases (i.e. ADC and OXA-51-like) and six components of the two major efflux systems (i.e. AdeABC and AdeIJK). Results were normalized using "bacterial quantotypic peptides," i.e. peptide markers of the bacterial quantity, to obtain precise protein quantitation (on average 8.93% coefficient of variation for three biological replicates). This allowed to correlate the levels of resistance to β-lactam with those of the production of acquired as well as resident β-lactamases or of efflux systems. SRM detected enhanced ADC or OXA-51-like production and absence or increased efflux pump production. Precise protein quantitation was particularly valuable to detect resistance mechanisms mediated by regulated genes or by overexpression of chromosomal genes. Combination of WGS and MS, two orthogonal and complementary techniques, allows thereby interpretation of the resistance phenotypes at the molecular level.

Abstract
Proteogenomics is an emerging approach to improve gene annotation and interpretation of proteomics data. Here we present JUMPg, an integrative proteogenomics pipeline including customized database construction, tag-based database search, peptide-spectrum match filtering, and data visualization. JUMPg creates multiple databases of DNA polymorphisms, mutations, splice junctions, partially trypticity, as well as protein fragments translated from the whole transcriptome in all six frames upon RNA-seq de novo assembly. We use a multistage strategy to search these databases sequentially, in which the performance is optimized by re-searching only unmatched high-quality spectra and reusing amino acid tags generated by the JUMP search engine. The identified peptides/proteins are displayed with gene loci using the UCSC genome browser. Then, the JUMPg program is applied to process a label-free mass spectrometry data set of Alzheimer's disease postmortem brain, uncovering 496 new peptides of amino acid substitutions, alternative splicing, frame shift, and "non-coding gene" translation. The novel protein PNMA6BL specifically expressed in the brain is highlighted. We also tested JUMPg to analyze a stable-isotope labeled data set of multiple myeloma cells, revealing 991 sample-specific peptides that include protein sequences in the immunoglobulin light chain variable region. Thus, the JUMPg program is an effective proteogenomics tool for multiomics data integration.
