Excited to share our latest article published in @plosbiology: journals.plos.org/plosbiolog… #plosbiologyauthor

Ebola virus VP35 interacts non-covalently with ubiquitin chains to promote viral replication

Ebola virus replication relies on the viral polymerase complex, which includes the co-factor VP35. This study reveals that unanchored polyubiquitin chains modulate polymerase function by interacting...

Excited to share our latest prep-print by @sarascini and the labs of @clausen_lab, Pavel Kovarik, and @johannes_zuber! Check out how the E3 ligase HUWE1 controls the proteasomal degradation of one of the main negative regulators of inflammation, TTP. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

congratulations to @Sarah_vanTol et al for this nice story on the detailed molecular mechanism on how Ebola VP35 regulates viral transcription via ubiquitination. Ubiquitination of Ebola virus VP35 at lysine 309 regulates viral transcription and assembly pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3553…

Ubiquitination of Ebola virus VP35 at lysine 309 regulates viral transcription and assembly - PubMed

Ebola virus (EBOV) VP35 is a polyfunctional protein involved in viral genome packaging, viral polymerase function, and host immune antagonism. The mechanisms regulating VP35's engagement in different...

Please RT. Looking for a new lab technician, would love to mentor someone who wants to go to grad school in a couple of years! You'd love to work on malaria or COVID immunology or pathology in mice. You'd have a project and help us set up at Rutgers njms.rutgers.edu/research/CI…
