By this point we need to make a list of what ubiquitin doesn’t do:

There are almost no crustaceans in the deep ocean.
Not because they would get crushed, but because they would DISSOLVE.
The cold & high pressure cause changes to water that make it very corrosive to calcium carbonate shells.
But there's one crustacean who solves this problem with ALUMINUM ARMOR.

What happens just before we die? Are the last stages of deterioration driven by different dynamics, or the same processes driving aging all our lives?
Turns out it's the latter, as we show in our new preprint! 🔬

Yep. Here's the list of telescopes that were used to achieve the goals of NASA's DART mission, and basically every single one of them outside the USA depended on collaborations with and labor* from scientists and non-scientists who are not US residents.
*and that labor paid for by non-US sources
In a publish-or-perish environment where numbers count much more than quality, artificial intelligence has become the great disruptor. But what this could ultimately lead to is universities rebuilding...
In this review, Audrey P. Gasch reflects on the history of the Environmental Stress Response (ESR) in #yeast, from its discovery 25 years ago to more recent insights into its purpose and regulation, focusing on remaining questions in #stress biology.

All organisms must be able to sense and respond to adverse environments, especially those that threaten cellular integrity. The age of genomics clarified the breadth and specificity of cellular stres...
The preprint from my work @mokhalil.bsky.social and Mary Dunlop's groups at BU is out on bioRxiv! As new tools come online to engineer multicellularity, we asked: how does sticking cells together into larger groups affect their fitness and function?
