TKUL has two infection-relevant enzyme functions: a kinase and a ubiquitin ligase. The kinase acts as a molecular switch that activates the ubiquitin ligase. Kinase inhibitors can block both enzymatic activities of TKUL, thus providing new therapeutic opportunities for leishmaniasis. 👇 (2/3)

🎖️ The Nobel Prize in Physics is awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis!

The laureates used a series of experiments to demonstrate that the bizarre properties of the quantum world can be made concrete in a system big enough to be held in the hand.
