"Roles of protein ubiquitination in physiology and disease", 10 August

This week's Hudson seminar will be held Thursday 10 August 12pm-1pm at Seminar Rooms 1 & 2, Level 2, TRF Building. 
The speaker will be Professor Sharad Kumar, NHMRC Senior Principal Research Fellow and Co-Director of the Centre for Cancer Biology at the University of South Australia.

He will be presenting "Roles of protein ubiquitination in physiology and disease"
Ubiquitination is a common protein modification process that is essential for the normal functioning of the cell. This seminar will discuss how ubiquitination regulates membrane proteins, such as the signaling receptors, ions channels and transporters, and the pathophysiological consequences of such a regulatory system. Data will be presented on the role of ubiquitination in iron and salt homeostasis, and in disease. The seminar should be of interest to a wide audience in biomedicine, biochemistry, cell biology and physiology.


A light lunch and refreshments will follow this presentation.

Please email (shaunagh.mchugh@hudson.org.au) if you would like to meet with Sharad before or after the seminar.
