New #preprint 😍‼️ led by 2 incredible postdocs @ninizhani.bsky.social & Ranj Papareddy: transforming #UFMylation from a local ribosome rescue pathway to systems level regulator of mRNA splicing www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... A short 🧵

Very cool @kellythd-nguyen.bsky.social and Team! Congrats!

thanks so much @plantophagy.bsky.social
See you soon in Vienna!

Congratulations to the full team! Very exciting!

The coordinated action of UFMylation and the RQC pathways clears arrested polypeptides at the ER - The EMBO Journal Clearance of arrested nascent polypeptides resulting from ribosomal stalling is essential for proteostasis. Stalled endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-bound ribosomes are marked by ubiquitin-fold modifier 1 (...

Congrats Milica @alessandrick.bsky.social & everyone @gekaragoz.bsky.social lab. Glad we could contribute to this awesome story on #UFMylation & #RQC crosstalk @embojournal.org link.springer.com/article/10.1...

🆕 publication! The @gekaragoz.bsky.social lab shows how cells clear stalled ribosomes at the ER, preventing harmful 'traffic jams' during protein synthesis🚦Their new @embojournal.org study reveals how quality control and UFMylation team up to keep translation moving ➡️ tinyurl.com/2czj8fvp

Congrats @fletcherlab.bsky.social and colleagues on this exciting story!

ZNFX1 uses two-component ubiquitin circuitry to quarantine viral RNA Squair et al. show that ZNFX1 restricts ssRNA virus replication by integrating SF1 helicase activity with dual E3 ligase mechanisms. ATP-dependent RNA binding activates E3 function, driving self-propa...

Receptor clustering is a common theme in viral detection, but whether detection directly hinders genome replication is less clear.

Excited to share the Z in RZ-type E3s: ZNFX1 is an RNA helicase that builds ubiquitin chains leading to aggregates that ensnare viral RNA.

Thanks! Can't wait for it!

The accessory adapters FAF1, FAF2, and UBXN7 accelerate proteasomal degradation by increasing prior p97-mediated substrate unfolding A group of accessory adapters positions the p97 adapter Ufd1 to boost substrate unfolding and subsequent proteasomal degradation.

VCP/p97’s accessory adapters (FAF1, FAF2, UBXN7) boost unfolding and subsequent proteasomal degradation. #ubiquitin. Our paper is out now:

Very exciting work from my colleagues @hemmo-lab.bsky.social to which I could contribute a tiny bit!

Thanks a lot Adam and see you on the next meeting!

Thanks a lot Helen. Looking forward to catching up on the next conference!

Thanks a lot Tim! Indeed they are :-)

Thanks Doris! I am super excited to join the department. See you very soon!
