New approach switches on protein degradation machinery
Chemical & Engineering News reports on a new approach that switches on the body's protein degradation machinery. The development points to new ways of controlling protein breakdown inside cells, a strategy of growing interest in drug discovery for targeting disease-causing proteins that were previously considered unreachable with existing medicines.
Why now: New protein degradation techniques are a hot topic in drug discovery because they could enable treatments for previously undruggable disease targets.
