(1/4) Molecular glue degraders are captivating drug discovery, but how might drug resistance emerge? Read our new preprint! We identify themes of degrader resistance involving neosubstrates. #TPDbiorxiv.org/content/10.110…
(2/4) Using CRISPR-suppressor scanning, we surveyed the resistance landscape across 2 neosubstrates. As expected, the ternary complex interface is a resistance hotspot. But different interfaces can tolerate different amounts of mutations, influencing resistance.
