Setting up a lab has been no joke. Today, I'm stoked to have one more piece of my postdoc work out in the wild. Several more manuscripts to go, and I don't have a lot of time for a tweetorial today, but enjoy and happy to get any feedback on this story. https://t.co/vkbL8m7YFG

Such a amazing story, congrats to @vcluca1 and the whole team
I am excited to share our @NatureComms paper describing the structure of #LAG3 bound to MHC-II. This project was carried out by @SuperMQQ et al at @MoffittResearch and provides new insights into the mechanism by which LAG3 suppresses T cell activation.

What if you could design binders to specific spots/motifs on target proteins: conserved epitopes on pandemic viral phosphoproteins, disordered regions on dysregulated transcription factors, or even breakpoints on fusion oncoproteins? That would unlock unprecedented specificity

Excited to the see the diversity of and emerging successes for extracellular protein degradation (eTPD) to pair with the established successes of intracellular protein degradation (iTPD). @Kaan_Kumru_ and I are thrilled to share this review! ...no protein is safe!
Check out this new review from our lab on extracellular targeted protein degradation (eTPD). Just came out on Nature Reviews Drug Discovery:
