The paper shows that BAY-805 induces USP21-KLHL12 association, recruiting USP21 to COPII vesicles and impairing large cargo transport.

This study identifies PRMT7 as a negative regulator of CD8+ T cell immunity and demonstrates a PROTAC degrader (MS54) that enhances anti-tumor responses by activating the NF-κB pathway.

This study shows that ABHD2 activity is not required for progesterone-induced Ca2+ influx via CatSper and subsequent motility changes in human sperm.

This study identifies BAP18 as a substrate of MAGE-A3/6, showing its degradation promotes cancer cell migration in both cell lines and human tissues.

The paper tests PROTACs targeting FBXO22 and finds no degradation of four targets but identifies potent FBXO22 homo-PROTACs and CRBN/VHL-mediated degraders.

This paper demonstrates a direct-to-biology CETSA approach to evaluate cellular target engagement without purification, showing unpurified compounds can be used for assessment.

The paper develops a chemical probe targeting the USP16 zinc-finger ubiquitin-binding domain and evaluates its selectivity and activity in cellular assays.

This paper introduces ProtacID, a BioID-based method to identify PROTAC-proximal proteins, validates degradation targets, and identifies non-productive interactions in human cells.

The paper identifies UNC10013, a covalent ligand targeting SETDB1's 3TD domain, which reduces methyltransferase activity and shows selectivity in cells.

The paper develops a resource for discovering ligands for WDR proteins using experimental and computational methods, leading to the identification of drug-like ligands for 9 out of 20 targets.

The paper introduces PFI-7, a chemical probe that inhibits GID4 Pro/N-degron interactions, revealing non-degradative roles of the CTLH complex in human cells.

This paper identifies PRMT5 as a regulator of HTT mRNA splicing and alternative polyadenylation, showing that its inhibition reduces full-length HTT protein levels by promoting premature termination and cleavage.

The paper shows that the CTLH E3 ligase complex regulates substrate selectivity and autoregulation by exchanging its β-propeller subunits WDR26 and muskelin.

The paper presents a chemical probe collection for studying protein methyltransferases, showing their utility in modulating epigenetic marks and affecting T cell differentiation.
