Chemical approaches to targeted protein degradation through modulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.
(PORTLAND PRESS LTD, 2017-03-15)
Manipulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system to achieve targeted degradation of proteins within cells using chemical tools and drugs has the potential to transform pharmacological and therapeutic approaches in cancer ...
Targeting secondary protein complexes in drug discovery: studying the druggability and chemical biology of the HSP70/BAG1 complex.
(ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY, 2017-05-04)
Proteins typically carry out their biological functions as multi-protein complexes, which can significantly affect the affinity of small-molecule inhibitors. HSP70 is an important target in oncology, so to study its chemical ...
Synthesis and Evaluation of a 2,11-Cembranoid-Inspired Library.
(WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, 2016-04-11)
The 2,11-cembranoid family of natural products has been used as inspiration for the synthesis of a structurally simplified, functionally diverse library of octahydroisobenzofuran-based compounds designed to augment a typical ...
Objective, Quantitative, Data-Driven Assessment of Chemical Probes.
(CELL PRESS, 2018-02-15)
Chemical probes are essential tools for understanding biological systems and for target validation, yet selecting probes for biomedical research is rarely based on objective assessment of all potential compounds. Here, we ...
Combining Mutational Signatures, Clonal Fitness, and Drug Affinity to Define Drug-Specific Resistance Mutations in Cancer.
(CELL PRESS, 2018-11-15)
The emergence of mutations that confer resistance to molecularly targeted therapeutics is dependent upon the effect of each mutation on drug affinity for the target protein, the clonal fitness of cells harboring the mutation, ...
Determination of Ligand-Binding Affinity (Kd) Using Transverse Relaxation Rate (R2) in the Ligand-Observed 1H NMR Experiment and Applications to Fragment-Based Drug Discovery.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2023-08-10)
High hit rates from initial ligand-observed NMR screening can make it challenging to prioritize which hits to follow up, especially in cases where there are no available crystal structures of these hits bound to the target ...
Solution structure of the Hop TPR2A domain and investigation of target druggability by NMR, biochemical and in silico approaches.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-09-29)
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a molecular chaperone that plays an important role in tumour biology by promoting the stabilisation and activity of oncogenic 'client' proteins. Inhibition of Hsp90 by small-molecule drugs, ...
