[Japanese session]New Frontier in ubiquitin research

Tue. Jun 28, 2022 5:00 PM - 7:30 PM JST
Tue. Jun 28, 2022 8:00 AM - 10:30 AM UTC
Venue D Tougen
Organizer: Yasushi Saeki (Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Medical Science)
Protein ubiquitylation is an essential post-translational modification that regulates almost all cellular functions. In this session, we will introduce new topics in ubiquitin research, including ubiquitin-dependent phase separation of cellular machineries, related diseases, and the implementation of recently emerging chemical tools such as artificial antibodies and chemical protein degraders.
