The #MembraneTrafficking online seminars are back this Thursday (June 26th, 5pm CEST). We'll hear from @jnuechel.bsky.social about how to find the right partner for a TANGO, and from Maohan Su about the organizational principles of the Golgi. @ishier.bsky.social @franbottanelli.bsky.social

Functional Characterization of Pathway Inhibitors for the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System (UPS) as Tool Compounds for CRBN and VHL-Mediated Targeted Protein Degradation
Small molecule degraders such as PROteolysis TArgeting Chimeras (PROTACs) and molecular glues are new modalities for drug development and important tools for target validation. When appropriately opti...

"Ribosome ubiquitylation events on specific ribosomal proteins impact translation activity." Interesting insight in RQC.

Ubiquitin-dependent translation control mechanisms: Degradation and beyond
Regulatory ubiquitylation of ribosomes is emerging as a key theme in translational regulation and quality control. Ford et al. review how distinct ribosomal ubiquitylation events regulate ribosome-associated quality control pathways at various stages of translation while also highlighting the open questions in the field.

We did a thing! Our first human islet isolation at Michigan by @cortig.bsky.social in partnership with our wonderful friends in the Alberta IsletCore @bcellorg.bsky.social. Excited for this to be the first of many to support diabetes research! 🤩

PPARγ-dependent remodeling of translational machinery in adipose progenitors is impaired in obesity
De Siqueira et al. explore the effects of rosiglitazone on adipose stem cell plasticity, showing that PPARγ stimulates expression of ribosomal factors in adipocyte precursors. This leads to translatio...

There is an interesting story developing here (certainly for those us curious about disease heterogeneity in T1D) 👇🏼👇🏼
Lovely work Guido and team 🙌🏼
