Postdoctoral Research Assistant: Chemistry Approaches to Probe E3 Ligase Mechanism and Function

Organelle-selective autophagy is emerging as a critical and highly coordinated cellular process, and its dysfunction is linked to cancer and neurological diseases. Crucially, organelle-selective autophagy requires the timely ubiquitination of substrates, yet the E3 ligases involved and how their activity is regulated are poorly understood. Our lab has...

Modification of proteins with ubiquitin-like proteins (Ubls) is a critical cellular process linked to pathogen resistance, cancer, and selective organelle degradation. Central to their conjugation to substrates are E3 ligase enzymes (E3s), yet for many Ubls the E3s are poorly understood or remain completely unknown. The Virdee lab has pioneered the...
