N4BP1 functions as a dimerization-dependent linear ubiquitin reader which regulates TNF signalling
Two PhD projects are available in our lab for students from China:
Project 1: Understanding the mechanism of ubiquitin ligases in host-pathogen interactions
Project 2: Exploring the ubiquitin system in innate immunity
Both projects will be funded by the Chinese Scholarship Council.
Applicants must be:
– Chinese students with a strong academic background.
– Students holding a PR Chinese passport.
– Either be resident in China at the time of application or studying overseas.
New job vacancy
We are hiring a Research Technician who will work on a new MRC funded project on ubiquitin conjugation in innate immune signalling:
Please get in touch if want to know more about this role.
The closing date is 30.10.23
We are hiring! An MRC funded Postdoc position is available.
If you are interested to work on the structural biology of the ubiquitin system and like to join our team here at QMUL in London, then please apply using the following link: https://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DDD602/postdoctoral-research-associate-in-structural-biochemistry.

Our work is now online on bioRxiv.
HHARI in motion reveals an unexpected substrate recognition site for RBR ligases!
Great fun writing about this exciting work from Rachel Klevit’s lab.
Congratulations Ibtehal
Ibtehal presented her PhD project at the Three Minute Thesis final and won the Peoples’s Choice Award!
Graduation
Finally! After a long wait due to the pandemic Wei and Irene receive their PhD certificates at our graduation ceremony. Congrats again to Dr. Pinzuti and Dr. Song!
