WEHI researchers have found glycogen can be directly regulated using ubiquitin, in landmark findings published in Nature. The study transforms understanding into glycogen metabolism & could lead to new treatments for diseases caused by abnormal sugar storage. www.wehi.edu.au/news/sweet-d... 🧵1/2

This image shows human liver cells treated with a drug that induces glycogen ubiquitination. The bright white speckles appear where glycogen and ubiquitin overlap, indicating that glycogen has been tagged with ubiquitin inside the cells.

Check out our latest paper on the ubiquitination of glycogen in cells and tissues! Congratulations to Marco Jochem (@marcojochem.bsky.social) and Simon Cobbold for leading this study and to collaborators @craigagoodman1.bsky.social, @pgregorevic.bsky.social, Kai Hofmann and Thomas Hermanns.

After a long (but fun!) postdoc journey, I am very excited to share that I will start my own lab in the Ubiquitin Signalling Division at WEHI. We will study how ubiquitin controls mitochondrial health and its role in neurodegenerative disease. Hiring soon!

It’s hard to believe that #AusUb2025 has already come to an end 😢. Don’t worry though - we’ll still be posting our speaker interviews in the next couple of days. Here’s what Sonja Lorenz thought of the Australian Ubiquitin Summit. 👇

‼️Towards the end of #AusUb25, we caught up with Jonathan Pruneda to discuss ubiquitin signalling and its relationship with host-pathogen interactions. It was an amazing conference and such a great chance to meet people from across the ubiquitin field 🤩

‼️For our final invited speaker interview, we talked with the amazing Titia Sixma about her work on the role of ubiquitin in DNA regulation, and some #AusUb2025 highlights. Thank you to everyone who came, it was an amazing conference and a great chance to see the breadth of global ubiquitin research!

Is there any biomolecule thats not #Ubiquitinated ? 🫣 It was super fun to chair my fav session on 'Ubiquitinating EVERYthing' during the kickstart event of #AusUb2025

Excited to share our latest work, now out in @lsajournal.org. 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.
