    Excited to share our latest work, now out in @LSAjournal. We show that the E3 ligase HOIL-1 can ubiquitinate many different saccharides and describe a chemoenzymatic platform to generate ubiquitinated sugars as tools for studying non-proteinaceous ubiquitination.

    We hope this will be useful for the field. A plasmid for expressing the constitutively active HOIL-1 variant is available via @Addgene:

    RT @WEHI_research: World-first: researchers have discovered what protein #PINK1 looks like in humans and how it is activated, solving a decades-long mystery in the fight against #Parkinsonsdisease. The team hope to use the knowledge to find a drug to stop #Parkinsons.

    We hope that our protocol will enable us and others to generate various ubiquitinated saccharides as tools to further develop the non-proteinaceous ubiquitin field. A plasmid for bacterial expression of the HOIL-1 variant will be available at @Addgene soon.
