including those that (1) disrupt MAD2L1BP interactions and delay mitotic exit— an adaptor protein essential in cancer, and (2) target a non-catalytic cysteine in the serine hydrolase, AFMID, a key enzyme in tryptophan metabolism.

This allowed us to identify over 300 stereoselective ligand-protein interactions from our focused library of tryptoline acrylamide stereoprobes. We characterized ligands for a diverse class of proteins,

Fascinating new preprint from @EvertNjomen & the Cravatt Lab highlighting the complementarity of cysteine- and protein-directed ABPP. This study is packed with insights on tackling the limitations of each method and decoding seemingly contradictory data. https://t.co/vN0Q6xPnHb

A day to be thankful: this country gave me a chance with a great education and support for basic research. And for my labbies and collaborators for partnering with me. So glad @NancyAHong captured this "touching" moment. #PIEZO
Just in! New medicine laureate Ardem Patapoutian and his son Luca, watching the #NobelPrize press conference shortly after finding out the happy news. Stay tuned for our interview with Patapoutian coming up soon! Photographer: Nancy Hong

Congratulations to the new cohort of #GilliamFellows
Congratulations and welcome to the 50 new #GilliamFellows and their mentors who are joining the Gilliam and HHMI family! We had a couple of questions for our Fellows, past and present, and we'll be sharing their responses here.

I am thrilled to share our latest work “DCAF11 Supports Targeted Protein Degradation by Electrophilic Proteolysis-Targeting Chimeras”. A fantastic collaboration between the Cravatt lab and @VividionRx! https://t.co/KYwBtyAbi8

Ligand-induced protein degradation has emerged as a compelling approach to promote the targeted elimination of proteins from cells by directing these proteins to the ubiquitin-proteasome machinery....
