Minority governance!
By engineering and applying function-guided proximity-mapping approach, Localis-REX, we have uncovered (Zhao, Miranda, et al., PNAS) that even small fractions of endogenous proteins existing outside their canonical locale can show significantly-elevated electrophilic-metabolite sensing against the protein in its canonical locale. This minority of electrophile-sensing proteins can strongly influence activity of the bulk protein and hence (…)
2021 International Chemical Biology Society Global Lectureship Award
We are most grateful to be recognized by this prestigious international honor. We thank the International Chemical Biology Society (ICBS).
Catch of the day!
Our latest work leveraging T-REX and zebrafish immune models has helped to uncover the precise mode-of-mechanism of pleiotropic electrophilic drugs (Poganik, Huang et al Nature Communications). We thank all of the contributing team members and funders supporting this study. “A tool to interrogate a new class of drugs” by EPFL-SB news
