1/9 What else can #MolecularGlues do in addition to #degradation? The Ebert Lab and Fischer Lab, Eric Fischer are proud to present a new mechanism @MolecularGluePolymerization published in nature. Joined forces with Hojong Yoon Jonas Koeppel nature.com/articles/s4158…





1/9 What happens when covalent chemistry meets molecular glue? The Ebert Lab, Fischer Lab, and Gray Lab discovered a trans-labeling covalent mechanism we termed “template-assisted covalent modification” from a new class of DCAF16-based BRD4 degraders.biorxiv.org/content/10.110…



Excited to share our work Thomä Lab on UBR5 as a common regulator of nuclear hormone receptor degradation. UBR5 competes with co-activators for a conserved site on NRs to regulate ligand dependent transcription on chromatin bit.ly/43vM7gJ Molecular Cell Thanks everyone!




Happy to share our article on potential ways to leverage UBR5 activity for targeted protein degradation of transcriptional regulatory proteins. Co-written with E3 ligase expert Asad Taherbhoy Foghorn Therapeutics and inspired by recent exciting UBR5 discoveries! cell.com/trends/pharmac…


Did you know that the @NIHDirector’s Early Independence Award supports junior #scientists to launch independent careers? Look at how this year’s awardees are “skipping the postdoc” and will pursue their own #biomedical and #BehavioralResearch commonfund.nih.gov/earlyindepende… #NIHHighRisk



Join us tomorrow at 11 am EST for a seminar focusing on UBR5, one of this summer's "hottest" ligases. Featuring speakers Jonathan Tsai, Jacob Aguirre, Kevin Mark, and Durga Kolla. Ebert Lab, Thomä Lab, Rapé Lab …afarbertargetedproteindegradation.org


Targeted protein #degradation: from mechanisms to #clinic. New molecular mechanisms can rapidly be translated - we can learn so much from nature. Great to be able to share this piece with Jonathan Tsai Ben Ebert and Eric Fischer Fischer Lab. #TPD nature.com/articles/s4158…

My lab at MD Anderson Cancer Center is actively seeking motivated individuals (Postdocs, RAs, Scientists) interested in TPD, induced proximity, or small molecule drug discovery. (1/6)
