Tomorrow we're hosting our annual Axel Ullrich Lecture with Jonathan Weissman's Lab ! Make sure to join us at 1pm in our lecture hall in Martinsried! ❕further information about the lecture: biochem.mpg.de/aul See you there!

See how CRLs forge ubiquitin chains on substrates - and degrader-recruited neo-substrate - at high-res! Millisecond polyubiquitylation! #cryoEM #TPD NatureStructMolBiol Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry (MPIB) UNLV College of Sciences 👉shorturl.at/eFS68 Related exciting work from Alessio Ciulli shorturl.at/hNSU5

Congratulations to twitter less Bonnie Su on her first paper from the lab! Bonnie shows that NELF can bind Pol II in two distinct confrontations that support either pausing or elongation. She did this using actively transcribing complexes. Read it here: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S10…

🚨Excited to share that our manuscript is now published in NatureStructMolBiol. Using #cryoEM 🔬we obtained multiple snapshots 📷 of the #chaperone-mediated multistep assembly pathway of the human 20S #proteasome.

Two celebrations in a row: After defending my PhD on Monday, the 2nd paper is online today. Thanks to all the fantastic people who supported my journey and made it so much fun. Check out our new paper on the cullin-RBR-E3 fusion protein CUL9: nature.com/articles/s4159… #PhD #cryoEM

Synple Chem (Synple Chem) and Enamine partner to jointly develop a new chemical space by fueling the world’s largest collection of building blocks provided by Enamine to Synple Chem’s reaction outcome prediction tools. Read full Press Release: bit.ly/3JGtQ9c

Would you like a data set of 40,000 reactions for evaluating your reactivity prediction models? We made it, so you don’t have to. 1/10

Check out our story revealing exciting regulation of the NAD+ biosynthetic enzyme NMNAT1 by the supramolecular CTLH E3 ligase assembly out in Molecular Cell! ➡️cell.com/molecular-cell… Karthik Gottemukkala, D.Sherpa, Arno Alpi Schulman lab Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry (MPIB)

Check out the study on the first identified human protein whose stability is regulated via Pro/N-degron and CTLH E3 ligase

Hot off the press – thrilled to share our newest publication describing how alkylamine-tethered molecules recruit FBXO22 for targeted protein degradation. Now out in Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…

Delighted to see our paper out in Nature Communications! We uncovered that alkylamine-tethered molecules recruit FBXO22 for TPD, making it an exciting addition to the TPD toolbox. nature.com/articles/s4146…

New preprint! 🧬🖥️ With the Johannes Walter, we created a predictome of nucleosome acidic patch binders using AlphaFold. Our approach identified both known and novel acidic patch interactors, opening new avenues for chromatin research. Check it out: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/3)

Published today, our fantastic collaboration with Lindsey James group, Brian Raught, and Licht Lab. Thanks to the talented David Nie and John Tabor! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Having a hard time with #CRISPR HDR? Your cells might be fighting against you! TREX1 nuclease, high in some cells, eats up HDR donor templates. Check out our paper in Nature Biotechnology for the story & ways to improve HDR. nature.com/articles/s4158… With Erman KARASU & John Maciejowski

Congratulations to graduate students Abdallah Mohamed from our group and Peter Wang from the Bartel lab on determining the structure of human AGO2 in the slicing conformation. This was a challenging project with many exciting results. Read our preprint to learn more!
