This study shows that the hGIDGID4 E3 ligase controls cell migration by ubiquitinating ARHGAP11A for degradation, thereby regulating RhoA activity. @LSAjournal! @PeterLab8 @HBagciBioID hubs.la/Q02T2gnJ0

We welcome Insa Klemt to your lab, who started last week as a postdoc. She did her PhD in Erlangen, Germany investigating mechanisms of selective cancer targeting and will now tackle the mechanisms of the ribosomal stress response.

Congratulations to our former Master-, and current PhD student @BonasseraMarti with her graduation. And welcome back to the lab!!
The probably largest class that ever attended a Masters' graduation ceremony since these were introduced in D-BIOL celebrated their achievement last Friday in a full Audimax . Check out the great photos of happy graduates and their families and friends! ethalumni.smugmug.com/Master…
