UbiCODE Meeting SYMPOSIUM Writing and Editing the Ubiquitin Code and UBIRed Meeting

From the 24th to the 27th of February, it took place in Bilbao three scientific events related to the biomedical research on the post-translational modifications of proteins by the ubiquitin family, organized by CIC bioGUNE, the University of the Basque Country and the French CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique), together with the scientific European and Spanish scientific consortiums UbiCODE, TRIM-NET and UBIRed. During these events, the most important advances in this field were shared…

Bilbao 2020: Registration and Abstract Submision Open

View event Writing and Editing the Ubiquitin Code” is a one-and-a-half day symposium that will focus on how the code is written and edited through ligases and proteases, how the different modifications affect cell signaling, and how new technologies can be applied to analyze these modifications. Presentations will cover a wide range of topics, from genome instability and metabolic regulation, to cancer, neurodegeneration and infectious…

March 2019 training course in Valencia

Training course | CNRS-CIPF | VALENCIA Crosstalk between Ub family members under stress conditions 11-15 MARCH 2019 Six UBIRed and six UbiCODE fellows were trained on techniques for detection of total and individual proteins simultaneously modified by UbLs. The detection of proteins modified by distinct members of the Ub family is still a challenge. Different methods were used to analyse Ub chain composition including detection…

1st Meeting of the Spanish Network of Excellence UBIRed

The 1st Meeting of the Spanish Network of Excellence UBIRed took place in the Center of Molecular Biology Severa Ochoca (CSIC-UAM, Madrid) on December 5th. The objective of UBIRed is to promote networking and collaborations among Spanish research groups interested on post-translational modification by ubiquitin like proteins (UBLs) in signaling, proliferation and cancer. The Network is composed by 10 groups from Centro National de Investigaciones…
