Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are key regulators of various cellular processes. Modulating PPIs with small molecules has gained increasing attention in drug discovery, particularly targeting the 14-3-3 protein family, which interacts with several hundred client proteins and plays a central role in cellular networks. However, targeting a specific PPI of the hub protein 14-3-3, with its plethora of potential client proteins, poses a significant selectivity challenge.

For decades, microtubules-composed of αβ-tubulin dimers-have been primary targets for cancer chemotherapy. While eight binding sites on the tubulin dimer have been structurally characterized, this study reveals a ninth. We found that the tubulin inhibitor Tumabulin-1 (TM1, a BML284 derivative) binds simultaneously to the well-known colchicine site and a previously unknown site, designated as Tumabulin site.

Many disease-relevant and functionally well-validated targets are difficult to drug. Their poorly defined 3D structure without deep hydrophobic pockets makes the development of ligands with low molecular weight and high affinity almost impossible. For these targets, incorporation into a ternary complex may be a viable alternative to modulate and in most cases inhibit their function.

Topical drug delivery on ocular surface always suffers from frequent administration and low bioavailability due to short drug residence. Despite advances of different adhesive ophthalmic drugs in extending release, cornea and eyelid nonselective adhesion inevitably causes ocular discomfort and even damage. Here, we describe in situ formation of an adhesive lubricative Janus nanocoating (ALJN) to enable long-lasting comfort drug delivery.

Background: The specificity of the ubiquitination process is mediated by the E3 ligases. Discriminating genuine substrates of E3s from mere interacting proteins is one of the major challenges in the field. We previously developed BioE3, a biotin-based approach that uses BirA-E3 fusions together with ubiquitin fused to a low-affinity AviTag to obtain a site-specific and proximity-dependent biotinylation of the substrates.
