  1. Interesting bioRxiv preprint by the groups of Liron Bar-Peled and A. John Iafrate. They introduce COUPLrs - structurally diverse molecules with 2 electrophilic warheads and an alkyne - to identify proteins that can be linked to other proteins. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/20

  2. Great talk by Nathanael Gray at #ISCPDD. He presented his group’s work on induced proximity to regulate transcription. Exciting data on recruiting a transcriptional activator (e.g. BRD4 or CDK9) to replace co-repressors on the death regulator BCL6 to induce cell death.

  3. Crabtree and Gray labs introduce #TCIPs! Demonstrating that chemical induced proximity between transcription factor #BCL6 and #BRD4, activates downstream #BCL6 target gene expression and results in potent apoptosis. Go go marvels of #inducedproximity! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/20
