PACCE Is a Novel Method for Using Mass Spectrometry to Identify Cellular Proteins That Bind RNA

RNA binding proteins (RBPs) are a large and diverse class of proteins. They are encoded by more than 1,500 genes in humans. RBPs control every aspect of RNA metabolism and posttranscriptionally regulate gene expression. However, identifying RBPs is challenging because many of them lack clearly identifiable features and are involved in processes not necessarily thought to be RNA related, such as metabolism (all the chemical changes that occur in a cell to break down a molecule).

Children With Autoimmune Muscle Disease Who Have Certain Autoantibodies in Their Blood Are More Likely to Have Severe Disease

Testing for MAA may be clinically useful in children with myositis. Given the association between MAA and severe disease, children with myositis who have one or more MAA types may need to receive more aggressive treatment than those without these autoantibodies.
