Vote for the best manuscript!

It's time to vote for the best manuscript in the field of metaproteomics!

Following the call for the best manuscript of the year, we have received a number of manuscripts. All manuscripts have now been evaluated by our scientific committee, who have selected the three finalists. Now it's up to you, the metaproteomics community, to vote for your favorite.

Please find here the finalists' manuscripts (order according to submission date):

  1. 1.Dietary protein source strongly alters gut microbiota composition and function by Blakeley-Ruiz et al. (PDF)
  2. 2.Tracing active members in microbial communities by BONCAT and click chemistry-based enrichment of newly synthesised proteins by Hellwig et al. (PDF)
  3. 3.Data-Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry as a Toolfor Metaproteomics: Interlaboratory Comparison Using Model Microbiome by Rajczewski et al. (PDF)

Please cast your vote using the following form.

Please note that each member has only one vote and that only members of the Metaproteomics Initiative can vote. The voting system will be open until the 4th of December 12 noon (CET).

What is metaproteomics?

Metaproteomics - an expansion of proteomics-methodologies to study the protein inventory of microbial communities – provides a valuable tool linking the taxonomic profile of a microbial community to its dynamic function. Introduced twenty years ago, metaproteomics is today used for various applications in biomedicine, biotechnology, and environmental science. For instance, metaproteomics approaches are now used for the identification of pathogenic microbial biomarkers and the study of poorly characterized microbiomes like the plant root-associated and aquatic microbiomes. Reflecting the broad and increasing field of applications, the portfolio of metaproteomics workflows has substantially diversified over the years and now offers a broad range of building blocks of different wet-lab, data acquisition, and data processing procedures, meeting the demands of its growing community.

A vibrant community

We promote dissemination of metaproteomics fundamentals, advancements, and applications through collaborative networking in microbiome research. We aim to be the central information hub and open meeting place where newcomers and experts interact to communicate, standardize and accelerate experimental and bioinformatic methodologies in this field. This will be achieved initially through this website, presentations, online communication channel, collaborative projects, and symposia. More information can be found in our commentary article in Microbiome.

Our Initiative is also recognized by international, well-renowned scientific organizations: since February 2021 by EuPA, and since June 2023 by HUPO under the B/D-HPP pillar.
