Molecular Physiology of the Cell

Last September 30, Ahmad MERHI successfully defended his PhD work entitled “Signals and mechanisms controlling the ubiquitylation and down-regulation of the yeast general amino acid permease”. All lab members then went to a very nice Labenese restaurant in Brussels. Ahmad will stay one more year in the lab to finalize different research projects.

Last August 16-20, Bruno And Myriam attended the “Yeast Cell Biology” meeting organized by the Cold Spring Harbor Lab (near New-York, USA), where Bruno presented a talk about the Bul adaptors of the Rsp5 ubiquitin ligase and their role in Gap1 permease ubiquitylation.
