#ProteinDegradation

UbiREAD deciphers proteasomal degradation code of homotypic and branched K48 and K63 ubiquitin chains Ubiquitin chains determine the fates of their modified proteins, including proteasomal degradation. Kiss et al. present UbiREAD, a technology to monitor cellular degradation and deubiquitination at hi...

Super excited to share our latest work on deciphering the #Ubiquitin Code

Ubiquitin is directly linked via an ester to protein-conjugated mono-ADP-ribose | The EMBO Journal imageimageCertain E3 ligases have been found to ubiquitylate hydroxyl groups on free NAD+ and ADP-ribose in vitro, but the in vivo occurrence of this dual post-translational modification has remained ...

I'm super excited to share our study in collaboration with @jnpruneda.bsky.social, published today in @embojournal.org! We show that PARPs are modified with a non-canonical ester-linked mono-ADP-ribosylated ubiquitin species for the first time in cells: www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

Long-term imaging of individual ribosomes reveals ribosome cooperativity in mRNA translation Ribosomes cooperate through transient collisions to ensure efficient translation.

Our paper on Stopless-ORF Circular RNAs (socRNAs) is now out in Cell. By high-res tracking and comparing translation by either single or multiple ribosomes, we find that ribosomes cooperate to overcome pausing to ensure fast and efficient translation
