🔥our latest study is now online @NatureComms we found that the salicylic acid catabolic enzymes DMR6/DLO1 are controlled by the ubiquitin system. SA modulates their turnover, revealing a regulatory circuit linking hormone metabolism to immune balance. nature.com/articles/s4146…

DMR6 undergoes SA-dependent conformational remodeling linked to turnover. We mapped the SCF E3 ligase adaptor interactome during infection, revealing dynamic remodeling, & identified ligase DAF1 using TurboID-DMR6/DLO1. Thanks @ShabekLab members, @Zerbe_Lab, Walley & Dinesh-Kumar

Excited to share our latest review on ubiquitin ligases in plant immunity: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…

@Lumba_lab Thank you, Shelley

Congratulations 👏🏼 Nitzan! @ShabekLab

Humbled and honored to receive the UC Davis Distinguished Teaching Award 🏅 Beyond our research mission, education & mentoring are at the core of what we do @ucdavis & I’m grateful for the opportunity to teach such engaged & motivated students ucdavis.edu/news/senate-an…

Please RT‼️@meo0205 & us are looking for a #postdoc to explore #regeneration & #autophagy across kingdoms of life.Please spread the word & get in touch if interested. health-life-sciences.de/opportunities/…

Excited to share our lab's latest discovery today in @Nature: "orthosteric molecular glue” (OMG) inhibitors - a new drug design strategy that achieves substrate-dependent potency, i.e., substrate selectivity, with conventional orthosteric inhibitors. rdcu.be/e3waV

Proximity labeling and quantitative proteomics suggest that ASK1/SKP1 assembles condition-specific networks, acting both within SCF E3 #ubiquitin ligases and through noncanonical interactions to coordinate #plant stress adaptation

Excited to share our latest work to close out 2025: Dynamic ASK1 proximity networks uncover SCF-dependent and noncanonical roles in ABA and drought adaptation🌱 With the Walley lab, we map how ASK1/SKP1 dynamically rewires protein networks during stress. biorxiv.org/content/10.648…
