Thank you Marcin!.
Elegant study shows how the location and composition of N-glycans (glyco-code) influences protein folding and quality control. Competition between early lectin chaperone and BiP, and the role of UGGT particularly ineteresting. @hebERt_lab #glycotime

And co- and post-translational modifications like glycosylation.
@MrSteveKnutson There is no "right" answer (and some of the Ub OGs bounce around in their papers), but there IS a right answer:. Ubiquitylation. It matches the nomenclature rules of other PTMs (methylation, phosphorylation, acetylation, etc.).

This is a long-term collaborative study with @gierasch1 and Anne Gershenson from @UMassAmherst and Terry Flotte of #UMassChan that builds off an initial study using SAHA by Balch and colleagues. #ER_literature #glycotime.

Congrats to Haiping Ke and @kpguay28 for their work that shows that a small molecule proteostasis regulatory boosts muscle cell alpha-one secretion, the site of intramuscular injections for gene therapy.

Excited to share our new collaborative preprint from @pietro1968, @zitzmannlab, @kpguay28 and others that describes the discovery of the first inhibitor to the ER quality control sensor UGGT. Something for everyone: crystallography, NMR and cell biology studies! #glycotime.

How ER UGGT recognizes non-native substrates remains a mystery. This exciting collaborative study led by @pietro1968 reports on the structure of UGGT and uses MD to model molecular motions of its 4 thioredoxin domains to provide valuable insight into its interrogation methods.

Thanks Mauri.
We highlighted for F1000 a nice ELife paper on protein quality control in the mammalian ER. Great job by Dan Hebert's guys! UGGT1 and UGGT2 ensure the quality of our proteome. Quantitative glycoproteomics reveals . - recommended in @FacultyOpinions

Congrats to grad student @_benjamin_adams for developing a glycoproteomics platform to ID natural substrates of key quality control ER folding sensors UGGT1 and UGGT2 and revealing UGGT2’s preference for lysosomal proteins. Good luck on his next endeavor @sshaolab @HarvardCellBio.
Happy to have our work identifying cellular substrates of the ER folding sensors UGGT1 and UGGT2 in @eLife. @UMassMCB @hebERt_lab.
