I am deeply saddened learning that my scientific hero Amos Bairoch has recently passed away. He will be remembered as the mastermind behind the SwissProt and many other endeavours in protein bioinformatics. There is a tribute web page at sib.swiss/amos/

For all #ubiquitin aficionados out there: Our new study, where we used an #alphafold based screen and found a new class of plant-specific DUBs, which cleave K63 chains and interfere with endocytosis at the plasma membrane. biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Measure protein deamidation by bacterial secreted proteins? Check out the recent NMR paper. Congratulations to @Rashmi_Agrata doi.org/10.1002/mrc.70…

Excited to share that our work on Parkinson's target USP30 has been published in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology! By combining DUB-domains onto USP30, we for the first time achieved crystallization with a small molecule (NK036) without Nanobodies! nature.com/articles/s4159…

Congratulations, great paper! But what makes you think that this is a CARD and not just any death-fold domain? pyrin and DEDs can also activate caspases and invertebrates use all kinds of death-fold domains for that purpose! I don't think this one really should be called CARD.
Tanita Wein@TanaWein

We previously showed that bacteria encode the pore-forming protein gasdermin and that it defends against phage infection science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… BUT the mechanism by which the gasdermin system defends bacteria against phage remained unknown.

Great paper, but sorry, this is *not* a CARD domain! It is a 6-helix death fold domain for sure, but there in no evidence provided that it belongs to the CARD subfamily. It might have (convergently?) acquired a similar function as mammalian caspase-associated CARDs. Just saying.

Our paper out @Nature: CARD domains mediate anti-phage defense in bacterial gasdermin systems CARDs are essential for caspase recruitment in inflammasome activation. We now find them in bacterial immune systems Congrats @TanaWein! Thanks Kranzusch lab! tinyurl.com/CA88DD

Very excited to share that our manuscript on the "Discovery and mechanism of K63-linkage-directed deubiquitinase activity in USP53" was published today at Nature Chemical Biology @nchembio. Congratulations Kim, Kai, and all authors! nature.com/articles/s4158…

For all ubiquitin, deubiquitinase and chemical biology aficionados: Here's a preprint from the lab introducing 2 new active DUBs in humans & a unique type of DUB activity one would miss with the widely used panels of free ubiquitin chains. t.ly/GnRVv Thread👇(1/10)

New Lammers Lab paper out now in @NatureComms!🥳 We reveal high functional diversity within bacterial deac(et)ylases by systematic functional/structural characterization. This is Leonies PhD project and I’m grateful to have contributed to this great work. nature.com/articles/s4146…
