At the crossroads of ubiquitin signaling and mass spectrometry

Ubiquitin signaling regulates a wide variety of cellular events, although it is mostly known to mediate protein degradation by the proteasome complex. The rapid development in mass spectrometry offers state-of-the-art technologies for addressing biological challenges in ubiquitin signaling. The First Conference on Proteomics of Protein Degradation & Ubiquitin Pathways in Vancouver, Canada, covers the latest progress in key topics of the field and fosters collaborative interactions among researchers.
