The role of chemical biology in the fight against SARS-CoV-2
We’re pleased to welcome two new lab members!
Adam Green joins us as a Postdoctoral Researcher following his PhD with Prof. Adam Nelson at the University of Leeds in the UK. Adams expertise is in synthetic chemistry and he will be synthesizing novel chemical biology probes in the lab.
Karine Kasti joins us as a research specialist following her BA in Chemistry from Emory University. Karine is the labs cell biology expert and also keeps us all organized!
Welcome to the lab!
After an extended virtual rotation and short shift-based lab rotations both Jenna Beyer and Nicole Raniszewski have decided to join the lab for their thesis projects!
Welcome to the lab!
We employed a scaffold hopping approach to enhance the activity of a previously reported BCR-Abl PROTAC. This represents a significant advance in the PROTAC field since it abrogates the need to optimize the linker to access a more potent degrader. The new PROTAC demonstrates a >10 fold increase in ability to induce degradation and possesses in vivo activity.

Burslem and Crews provide a guide to the design, implementation, and therapeutic and basic research applications of PROTACs, small molecules designed to induce protein degradation.
