🔥our latest study is now online @NatureComms we found that the salicylic acid catabolic enzymes DMR6/DLO1 are controlled by the ubiquitin system. SA modulates their turnover, revealing a regulatory circuit linking hormone metabolism to immune balance. https://t.co/Xu9zZxgq7G

DMR6 undergoes SA-dependent conformational remodeling linked to turnover. We mapped the SCF E3 ligase adaptor interactome during infection, revealing dynamic remodeling, & identified ligase DAF1 using TurboID-DMR6/DLO1. Thanks @ShabekLab members, @Zerbe_Lab, Walley & Dinesh-Kumar

Excited to share our lab's latest discovery today in @Nature: "orthosteric molecular glue” (OMG) inhibitors - a new drug design strategy that achieves substrate-dependent potency, i.e., substrate selectivity, with conventional orthosteric inhibitors. https://t.co/U5Y6JBoJql

[Nitzan Shabek @ShabekLab]

Proximity labeling and quantitative proteomics suggest that ASK1/SKP1 assembles condition-specific networks, acting both within SCF E3 #ubiquitin ligases and through noncanonical interactions to coordinate #plant stress adaptation

[Nitzan Shabek @ShabekLab]

Excited to share our latest work to close out 2025: Dynamic ASK1 proximity networks uncover SCF-dependent and noncanonical roles in ABA and drought adaptation🌱 With the Walley lab, we map how ASK1/SKP1 dynamically rewires protein networks during stress. https://t.co/GoqFnTj87U
