Check out the newest issue of the Degrader Digest where we highlight an upcoming #TPD conference with @HansonWade and other scientific and industry highlights: rolls.bublup.com/degraderdigest…

A new @MooreLab preprint paper describes the use of a cyclic coordinate descent algorithm to construct the energy landscape of PROTAC-mediated protein-protein interactions, opening up the possibility of adding design capabilities to #proteindegradation. bit.ly/3nnB9bX

#ICYMI A recent @ACSMedChemLett article concludes that while N-acyl-N-alkylsulfonamide (NASA) chemistry can be used to selectively label proteins, the lack of #proteindegradation observed indicates that efficiency of this strategy remains an open question. bit.ly/3tqRIVn

A comprehensive overview of opportunities and challenges in developing #proteindegradation therapies published in @ElsevierConnect Drug Discovery Today by @ianchurcher2 and colleagues.bit.ly/3l7WVxw

A new @nchembio study from the @DASpiegel256 lab presents evidence that bifunctional synthetic molecules called MoDE-As (molecular degraders of extracellular proteins through ASGPR) can enable targeted #proteindegradation of extracellular proteins. go.nature.com/3E2bifq

If you haven’t, check out the newest issue of the Degrader Digest where we highlight new companies in the space, additional biology animations, and an updated list of industry events. We also include recent media articles and scientific papers: bit.ly/3CbYcuh

A recent paper published in @rsc_medchem describes generation and characterization of cereblon (CRBN) degraders as tools suitable for cell-based studies in CRBN biology and #proteindegradation drug discovery. rsc.li/3lart1r

Assessment of #proteindegradation efficacy requires measurement of protein levels in cells: the @fischerlab1 recently published these protocols on how to quantify cellular protein levels and the corresponding tools for analyzing the data. bit.ly/3nvZZGH

This new @BiochemistryACS paper from the Nomura lab at @UCBerkeley reviews existing E3 ligases successfully exploited for targeted #proteindegradation and discusses strategies for discovering additional E3 ligase recruiters. bit.ly/3jWjUMv

This new paper from @AndyMartinLab available on @bioRxiv describes how ubiquitin chains modulate 26S proteasome conformation to ensure substrate selectivity and prioritization in the cell during #proteindegradation.bit.ly/3B4KIjl

LYTACs (lysosome-targeting chimeras) are #proteindegradation tools that make use of the lysosome degradation pathway. This @ChemMedChem paper covers 2 studies that describe the scope of LYTACs and compare this tool with other #proteindegradation platforms bit.ly/3xBz8Kr

In a recent #JMedChem article, authors share their perspective on the recent advances in molecular glues for targeted #proteindegradation & discuss challenges in developing molecular glues into therapeutic agents. bit.ly/3xFL4uB

PROTACs consist of a target binding unit, a linker & an E3 ligase binding moiety. A new @FrontChemistry review compares different synthetic opportunities to connect E3 ligands & describes the chemistry of linker attachment. bit.ly/3s6jJk7

The authors of a recent #JMedChem article from Eric Fischer’s lab @DanaFarber describe a newly developed bromodomain #proteindegradation tag along with the corresponding cereblon (CRBN)-based heterobifunctional degrader. bit.ly/3xxj5gD

New @NatRevDrugDisc paper from @emblebi leader Andrew Leach’s team presents a systematic approach to assess the PROTAC tractability of protein targets, including novel targets not previously described in literature for future #proteindegradation efforts. go.nature.com/2Xc8knI
