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.

Could this breakthrough research lead to the first treatment for #longCOVID? A world-first milestone made possible through the advanced technologies of the National Drug Discovery Centre.
