This study, led by Megan Mitchem & Ashley Choi at the Truman Lab (@trumanlab.bsky.social), provides a resource for dissecting the functional landscape of Cdc37 post-translational regulation & highlights new regulatory sites w/potential relevance to chaperone-kinase network dysregulation in disease.
New in JBC press: "Dissecting the Cdc37 Co-chaperone Code: Functional Roles in Chaperone-Mediated Stress Adaptation."

Dissecting the Cdc37 Co-chaperone Code: Functional Roles in Chaperone-Mediated Stress Adaptation
Cdc37 is a kinase-specific co-chaperone that scaffolds protein kinase clients to the
Hsp90 chaperone system. Although phosphorylation at residues S14 and S17 is known
to regulate Cdc37 function, the b...

Friday was the 10th anniversary of setting up my lab! My amazing team hosted a party-the showstopper was the video they made that contained messages from all my previous students, mentors and collaborators!Finished the day by failing Beat the bomb in Charlotte!

@ronbeavis.bsky.social Hi Ron, I teach a graduate course on cell signaling and each year do a couple of classes on PTMs. I love showing the students how to use the gpmdb for their studies but can’t access it anymore from the US. Do you offer paid access/educational discount for those in the US?

A really important skill for trainees to learn is to be a “closer” of a project-that is to take it over the finish line for publication. This means doing the experiments, getting the figures/text ready for submission and being prepared to do review corrections 😀

On adaptation to a mesophilic environment and the chaperone network in Archaea
Hopla il est là et je ferais une petite explication de ce que j'ai cherché à comprendre dedans. Mais ça parle de chaperonnes et d'archées et de relations entre évolution et HSP70.
