Abstract
Background: Recent advances in proteomics methodologies allow for high throughput profiling of proteolytic cleavage events. The resulting substrate peptide distributions provide deep insights in the underlying macromolecular recognition events, as determinants of biomolecular specificity identified by proteomics approaches may be compared to structure-based analysis of corresponding protein-protein interfaces.
Method: Here, we present an overview of experimental and computational methodologies and tools applied in the area and provide an outlook beyond the protein class of proteases. Results and Conclusion: We discuss here future potential, synergies and needs of the emerging overlap disciplines of proteomics and structure-based modelling.Keywords: Macromolecular recognition, molecular modelling, peptide binding, protein-protein-interface, protease substrate profiling, specificity.

Artificial Intelligence for Protein Research
Protein research, essential for understanding biological processes and creating therapeutics, faces challenges due to the intricate nature of protein structures and functions. Traditional methods are limited in exploring the vast protein sequence space efficiently. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) offer promising solutions by improving predictions and speeding up ...read more
Nutrition and Metabolism in Musculoskeletal Diseases
The musculoskeletal system consists mainly of cartilage, bone, muscles, tendons, connective tissue and ligaments. Balanced metabolism is of vital importance for the homeostasis of the musculoskeletal system. A series of musculoskeletal diseases (for example, sarcopenia, osteoporosis) are resulted from the dysregulated metabolism of the musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, metabolic diseases (such ...read more
Protein Folding, Aggregation and Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation
Protein folding, misfolding and aggregation remain one of the main problems of interdisciplinary science not only because many questions are still open, but also because they are important from the point of view of practical application. Protein aggregation and formation of fibrillar structures, for example, is a hallmark of a ...read more
