Modern molecular techniques have progressed to the point where sequencing can seem almost quaint. At the Basic Science Symposium of The Liver Meeting 2022, new techniques were on full display, with sessions devoted to epigenetics, microbiome analysis and spatial transcriptomics. But the first session was still on genetic variants in all their forms – rare variants, common variants and non-germline mutations.
University of Michigan has described new proteolysis targeting chimeric (PROTACs) compounds comprising cereblon (CRBN) ligands covalently bonded to CREB-binding protein (CBP) and/or histone acetyltransferase KAT3B (p300)-targeting moiety through linker reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
The University of Michigan has synthesized new proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) compounds comprising an E3 ubiquitin ligase binding moiety covalently linked estrogen receptor (ER) targeting moiety reported to be useful for the treatment of breast cancer.
