Host: Arto Pulliainen

 

The Hottiger-laboratory studies molecular regulatory mechanisms of inflammation, with special focus on the role of post-translation modifications in inflammatory signaling. They have contributed to the identification of protein ADP-ribosylation as a crucial process in the cellular response to detrimental stimuli, be it through genotoxicity, oxidative or metabolic stress, or excessive inflammation. Their current work focuses on the following questions: (i) Are ADP-ribosylation patterns cell-type specific or stimulus-specific, i.e. are there specific patterns that are associated with specific cell-physiological conditions? (ii) What are the modifiers (writer, binders, erasers) involved in those patterns? How can we specifically interfere with their activity to modulate the patterns? (iii) What are the regulatory mechanisms in ADP-ribosylation? How is the type and quantity of ADP-ribosylation patterns regulated? (iv) What are the downstream events of ADP-ribosylation, i.e. how does ADP-ribosylation alter the function of specific proteins and what is the effect on cell physiology? Most recently, the Hottiger-laboratory has studied the patterns of ADP-ribosylation using new systems biology approaches such as ADP-ribose specific high-resolution and quantitative mass spectrometry.
