Beautiful work, crucial for uncovering the mechanism of alkylamine degraders, helping the progress of our recently published work. Our complementary studies together with the new FBXO22-based PROTACs from Zhang lab (https://t.co/fCKAm772iI) have unclocked FBXO22 for TPD!
Published today, our fantastic collaboration with Lindsey James group, @BrianRaught, and Licht Lab.
Thanks to the talented David Nie and John Tabor!

Delighted to see our paper out in @NatureComms! We uncovered that alkylamine-tethered molecules recruit FBXO22 for TPD, making it an exciting addition to the TPD toolbox. https://t.co/qt9JuAdxJy
@KRHornberger@danetteldaniels @doc_jlmeier It could be a possibility, but we tested up to PEG4 which was the longest of all the linkers we had used so far. And for both FKBP12 and the two other targets, NSD2 and XIAP, shorter linkers worked as well. In any case target-to-target optomization would be the way to go.
Finally, shoutout to @CherylArrowsmi1
and James labs for orthogonally elucidating a shared mechanism for another alkylamine degrader targeting NSD2 that was very instructive for our own work. https://t.co/rnY8z3Q90a
This was the result of an amazing team effort! Special thanks to @jakobfarnung and @JoannaLiwocha from the Schulman lab for the biochemistry expertise, and Kevin Dong, Ka Yang and Joao Paulo from Gygi lab for the proteomics support.
Big thanks to my PI @georg_e_winter, and our collaborators @GygiLab, Brenda Schulman lab and @johannes_zuber lab for the invaluable support and expertise!
We are very excited to share our story published in @MolSystBiol in collaboration with the Loizou Lab @LoizouJoanna, describing the role of PRDX1 as a nuclear-imported antioxidant enzyme for ROS scavenging after DNA-damage 🎉🎉🎉.
