In vivo analysis of ubiquitylation and sumoylation (ORGANIZED BY PROTEOSTASIS)

  • Posted:

The purpose of this training school is to provide a hands-on practical session on tools and techniques used for the analysis of protein ubiquitylation and SUMOylation in living cells. The course is aimed at early stage researchers (PhD students, post-docs) who are interested in learning ubiquitin/SUMO-related techniques. The practical sessions will introduce diverse methodologies, ranging […]

Redox Regulation of Metabolic Processes (ORGANIZED BY PROTEOSTASIS)

  • Posted:

This course aims to gain an understanding of the role of reactive oxygen species in metabolism and in the regulation of pivotal metabolic processes. This course will cover these new developments in five days with different focus: general principles of redox regulation (day 1), the interaction between reactive species and metabolic processes and signalling cascades […]

New approaches to study Ub and UbL modifications (ORGANIZED BY PROTEOSTASIS)

  • Posted:

The ubiquitin field is expanding at an astounding pace, and the techniques used to interrogate it are becoming ever more sophisticated. In particular the cross-talk between ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like modification, and the emergence of ubiquitin modification by e.g. phosphorylation represent just two new areas of research that require new concepts and strategies. For scientists early […]
