Training of natural electrophiles to target a single protein leads to improved target specificity and drug activity, but retains the electrophile’s privileged properties.
The first step to translation of T-REX, by Xuyu et al., is set to appear in ACS Central Science:
Precision targeting of pten-null triple-negative breast tumors guided by electrophilic metabolite sensing
