Check out our new publication on protein quality control, from my masters internship in University of Gothenburg! Thanks for the awesome supervision @ArthurFischbach and Thomas Nyström! Congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉
Arthur Fischbach@ArthurFischbach

Very excited to share my latest work on #aging and #proteostasis published now in @NatureComms. Here, we report on engineered, artificial systems to export endogenous or mutant huntingtin protein aggregates from cells rdcu.be/dbLTH nature.com/articles/s4146…

Very excited to share our latest work on non-canonical autophagy and aging @NatureAging - thanks to all of the co-authors @Buck, @sbpdiscovery and @RutgersU! Big cudos especially to Assistant Professor Dr. Caroline Kumsta @Kumsta!
Nature Aging@NatureAging

Online now! Yang et al. show that inhibition of early-acting autophagy genes in neurons extend C. elegans lifespan, improve proteostasis, and increase #exopher formation via the autonomous WD40 domain-related function of ATG-16.2. @kumsta @thehansenlab rdcu.be/dvaFk

Wow! Very happy to see that the extensive change in the protein ubiquitination landscape is a major proteostasis signature during aging which is evolutionary conserved in vertebrates
Alessandro Ori@AOri_lab

6/Our work demonstrates that remodeling of protein ubiquitylation is a major proteostasis signature of aging extending previous findings in nematodes by @TheVilchezLab to the vertebrate brain nature.com/articles/s4158…

Terrific work from Alessandro's lab (as usual) demonstrating extensive remodeling of the ubiquitination landscape during aging in mice and killifish! The authors also provide mechanistic insights on how a third of these changes occur
Alessandro Ori@AOri_lab

In our latest pre-print, we studied how protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) change during brain aging. Kudos to the incredible team at @AOri_lab @AntonioMarinoMB @DomenicoFraia @panfilovadi @AmitKusahu1598 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Thank you @impetusgrants for your support! @MarkusWehrmann_ had the exciting idea to use his expertise on directed evolution for aging research
Impetus@impetusgrants

Decline in proteostasis and lysosomal function during aging leads to improper protein degradation and accumulation of toxic proteins. @TheVilchezLab @MarkusWehrmann_ are using directed evolution to engineer protein variants that can effectively reduce aggregates during aging.

It feels unreal to receive my first grant this early on in my career by @impetusgrants. Especially grateful to @TheVilchezLab that enabled and supported me to follow my own ideas and projects. x.com/impetusgrants/…
