C-terminal amides mark proteins for degradation via SCF–FBXO31 - Nature
SCF–FBXO31 scans proteins for C-terminal amidation and marks them for subsequent proteasomal degradation.

Very excited to highlight @jcornlab's beautiful work on the E3 ligase SCF-FBXO31, which recognizes chemically damaged proteins. Mutations in FBXO31 cause disease by substrate-rewiring, really cool. Congratulations to all authors!

Signs of damage that drive protein degradation | Nature
Many environmental toxins damage proteins, which then must be removed to avoid dangerous protein aggregation and disease. How cells dispose of chemically modified proteins has been unclear, but a discovery offers some clues. How the stress-response machinery eliminates damaged proteins.

scary but fascinating - cells have a degradation pathway that hunts down C-terminal scars (amides!) on damaged proteins. just wow. chemical biology plus CRISPR at its best. big congrats to all authors!
