After a great review process with
@naturecomms.bsky.social
, I'm so happy to share our work identifying inactive RING E3
#ubiquitin
#pseudoligases
in the TRIM protein family!!

Great @chemrxiv.bsky.social preprint by a team of GSK around @jtbush.bsky.social. They showcase the power of single- and multi-step direct-to-biology approaches by developing a potent, cell-active actylamide inhibitor for WRN helicase.

Interesting paper by the groups of
@katrinrittinger.bsky.social
and
@jtbush.bsky.social
in
@commschem.bsky.social
. DIA-based chemical proteomics in combination with direct-to-biology compound optimization identifies new, enantioselective inhibitors for the DUB OTUD7B.

Happy to share our new paper, out now in
@commschem.bsky.social
. Was great working with Aini and
@katmcphie.bsky.social
on this! We used chemoproteomics and HTC to find an enantioselective hit for OTUD7B.
