Congratulations to Phillip Barbulescu in the lab for defending an excellent PhD thesis! Well done, Phil! 👍
New paper from the martin lab: Phil Barbulescu and Chetan Chana from the @albertoxmartin and Frank Sicheri labs published this article showing that FAM72A degrades UNG2 through the GID/CTLH complex to promote mutagenic repair during antibody maturation | Nature Communications

Martin Lab turns 20! Here are some of the pictures from the lab's 20th anniversary celebrations from the lab retreat at Mugg's Island.
Congratulations, Yuqing!
Congratulations, Yuqing!
Very happy to share our latest review article published on @TrendsImmuno today, where we discuss the latest progress on mutagenic DNA repair during antibody diversification in B cells @MartinLabUofT authors.elsevier.com/c/1fE0S5Eb0Rq9…
Congratulations to Matt and everyone contributed in this new paper from our lab. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Good luck for your new position, @conglei . It was great working with you in the lab. All the best!
Researchers in the lab of @uoftmedicine's Alberto Martin discovered an overlooked gene that plays a major role in the development of antibodies. #UofT 🔬 uoft.me/7lo
Congratulations to Yuqing and Conglei in the lab for their excellent study that was just published in Nature. nature.com/articles/s4158… And thank you to the many collaborators that helped contribute to this work.
This week we celebrated the farewell of Yann Malaise, a wonderful post-doc in the lab for the past three years. We wish you all the very best for your future endeavours, Yann.
I am looking for a #PostDoctoral Fellow to study B cell biology and the DNA repair pathways that are associated with antibody diversification processes. More information about the position is available here: immunology.utoronto.ca/sites/default/…
Give this woman a Nobel Prize. bit.ly/3aQUMm6 UPenn "told me that they’d had a meeting and concluded that I was not of faculty quality,” she said. ”When I told them I was leaving, they laughed at me and said, ‘BioNTech doesn’t even have a website.’”
The latest study from our lab is now online @emboreports. SHLD2 Promotes Class Switch Recombination by Preventing Inactivating Deletions Within the Igh Locus. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32558186/
I am excited to launch the weekly Social DNAing webinar series on June 18,2020- a virtual meeting room for the genomic instability community. Check it out as cancer.columbia.edu/dna-webinar
Marking the 20th anniversary of the discovery of Activation-Induced cytidine Deaminase (AID), we discussed the biochemistry, function and regulation of AID in Antibody Diversification in this new review @TrendsImmuno. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32434680/
Our latest study just out @NatureComms by Tey Irrazabal et al. shows limiting oxidative DNA damage reduces microbe induced colitis-associated colorectal cancer.
