Happy to share our latest work in collaboration with Dr. Daniela Matei, Dr. Joshua Zhu, and Purav Vagadia. We developed new TG2 protein degraders to treat ovarian cancer that block both enzymatic and non-enzymatic activities of multi-functional TG2 even though they do not bind the catalytic site.

Discovery of Potent and Selective MNK Kinase Inhibitors for the Treatment of Leukemia
MNK activity is regulated by the p38 and Erk MAPK pathways. Phosphorylation of MNK leads to its activation and binding to the eIF4G/eIF4E complex. MNK then phosphorylates eIF4E at Ser209, whose activa...

Rational Design and Optimization of a Potent IDO1 Proteolysis Targeting Chimera (PROTAC)
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is an immunosuppressive protein that inhibits antitumor immunity through both tryptophan metabolism and nonenzymatic functions. Drugs targeting IDO1 enzyme activit...
