‼️For our final invited speaker interview, we talked with the amazing Titia Sixma about her work on the role of ubiquitin in DNA regulation, and some #AusUb2025 highlights. Thank you to everyone who came, it was an amazing conference and a great chance to see the breadth of global ubiquitin research!
‼️Towards the end of #AusUb25, we caught up with Jonathan Pruneda to discuss ubiquitin signalling and its relationship with host-pathogen interactions. It was an amazing conference and such a great chance to meet people from across the ubiquitin field 🤩
‼️ Following on from our “M1 chains everywhere!” session at #AusUb25 we took the chance to interview one of the pioneering researchers in this field, Kazuhiro Iwai. Have a look below! ✨✨✨
‼️It was wonderful to have Professor Kay Hoffmann at the #AusUb25 - and even better to get the chance to interview him! Hear about his experiences in industry and academia as well as his love for proteins😁
‼️Have a listen to a little about Kylie Walter’s exciting new research, conference talk, and her experience at #AusUb2025. What did she enjoy most about the conference? More interviews to come in the next week so stay tuned 😁
Today we have Brenda Schulman, Director of the Department of Molecular Machines and Signalling at Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry, as our interviewee at #AusUb2025. Jump in to find out her research focus and conference tips!
It’s hard to believe that #AusUb2025 has already come to an end 😢. Don’t worry though - we’ll still be posting our speaker interviews in the next couple of days. Here’s what Sonja Lorenz thought of the Australian Ubiquitin Summit. 👇
What a fantastic few days at The *inaugural* Australian Ubiquitin Summit 🤩 #UbiquitinByTheBay It was fun to contribute behind the scenes in the lead-up, help chair the opening session, host lightning talks, and dive into conversations during the poster session and EMCR panel discussions.
That was our last presentation session at #AusUb2025!!! 🥳We explored the role of #ubiquitin in different diseases, from cancer to chicken pox. A huge thank you to our final speakers: Sandra Nicholson, Yi-Ching Wang, Anindita Puri and Ruey-Hwa Chen.
🫣 Can you believe that we are at the last day of #AusUb2025?!?! The second ‘Mechanisms in #Ubiquitination’ session had a focus on deubiquitinases #DUB.
The #EMCR discussion panel wrapped up Day 3 at #AusUb2025 nicely! If you are a PI, what would be your best advice to the EMCR you? Let us know in the comment!
The last session during the #TPD day at #AusUb2025 explored the Translational Journey of TPD. Gwenn Hansen and Kanae Gamo both gave great talks on the topic. While the presentations of the day are all finished, the long anticipated EMCR panel discussion is coming next! #ubiquitin
And that’s our third session of the #TPD day at #AusUb2025 done! Great talks on the forefront of #TPD in Disease Management.
Min Zhuang from ShanghaiTech University talking about the MARCHF5 mitochondria and peroxisome localised E3 #AusUb2025 #LorneUbiquitin2025 @ausub.bsky.social
Very nice presentation by Phil Chamberlain from Neomorph to kick off the TPD day today at @ausub.bsky.social #AusUb2025 #LorneUbiquitin2025 From the fundamentals of glues to identifying more in the proteome to glue
Learning more about cryptic interaction areas of CRBN during glue binding presented by Lei Liu from Tsinghua University @tsinghuauniversity.bsky.social Work partially in a pre-print @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social #AusUb2025 #LorneUbqiuitin2025 @ausub.bsky.social
Continuing on with our TPD-themed day at #AusUb2025, we just had amazing talks on ‘the Frontiers of Innovation in TPD’ from Eric Fischer, Fleur Ferguson, Johannes Yeh, Man Pan, and Mikihiko Naito. #ubiquitin #TPD #targetedproteindegradation
Day 3 is TPD day at #AusUb2025. We’ve gone off to a flying start with tantalising talks on molecular glues and PROTACs given by Philip Chamberlain, Lei Liu, Nishma Gupta and Stefan Knapp.
Time to find out what’s the newest insight on the #ubiquitin-proteosome degradation system from our speakers: Shang-Te (Danny) Hsu, Yasushi Saeki, Indrajit Sahu, and Kylie Walters. While this is our last talk session of Day 2 at #AusUb2025, science goes on at the poster session…
Another session that’s full of star speakers! Thank you Eric Bennet, Pei Yee Tey, Achim Werner, Xiaofeng Zheng and Min Zhuang for your wonderful presentations!
Day 2 of #AusUb2025 began with the first session on ‘Mechanisms in Ubiquitination’. Thank you to all speakers: Christopher Lima, Chris Tonkin, Kuen-Phon Wu, Bekky Feltham and Sonja Lorenz.
Eric Bennett coming from @ucsandiego.bsky.social talks about how E3s have plasticity in quality control to facilitate degradation #AusUb2025 #LorneUbiquitin @ausub.bsky.social
@impeiyee.bsky.social from the labs of Sylvie Urbe and Michael Clague presents to us a tale of CTLA4 turnover Some cool stuff published in @liverpooluni.bsky.social @jcb.org #AusUb2025 #LorneUbiquitin2025 @ausub.bsky.social
Is there any biomolecule thats not #Ubiquitinated ? 🫣 It was super fun to chair my fav session on 'Ubiquitinating EVERYthing' during the kickstart event of #AusUb2025
The Australian Ubiquitin Summit@ausub.bsky.social · 9mo ago#AusUb25 kicked off with an amazing session on ‘Ubiquitinating Things’. Thank you to all speakers: Brenda Schulman, Jonathan Pruneda, Satpal Virdee, Andrii Gorelik, and Yukiko Yoshida!
Always a pleasure to hear about the world of the HECT E3s from @sonjalorenzlab.bsky.social from Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences Welcome to Australia! Featuring work published in @cp-molcell.bsky.social @natcomms.nature.com #LorneUbiquitin2025 #AusUb2025 @ausub.bsky.social
The unique E2/E3 UBE2O structure presented by Kuen-Phon Wu from Academia Sinica Taiwan #LorneUbiquitin2025 #AusUb2025 @ausub.bsky.social
Day 2 of the conference in Australia Revisiting the E1-E2-E3 cascade with Chris Lima from the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center @ausub.bsky.social #AusUb2025 #LorneUbiquitin2025
How cool was it to hear the ‘From glycogen to ubiquitin and back again’ story from Professor Sir Philip Cohen (FRS FRSE FAA FFMedSci), a pioneer in ubiquitin research. It was such a pleasure to have him deliver the keynote presentation on Day 1 of #AusUb2025.
