In one approach, they mark targeted proteins with “destroy me” tags that work with small molecules known as molecular glues to prompt the cell’s own protein-clearing machinery to gobble up the proteins. PACE allows researchers to rapidly evolve new proteins that have useful features.

TPD is a rapidly evolving therapeutic modality to degrade a disease-causing proteins, thereby eliminating their function specifically. 1 TPD is expected to challenge undruggable proteins, which are highly difficult to target by conventional small molecules. How does TPD work?

Shortly after finishing my studies, I landed my first job in industry working on cell biology research for several disease indications. At the time, research and leadership roles in biotech/pharma industry were predominately held by men and there were not as many opportunities for career development and mentorship from women leaders.

The research community pressed on, turning to novel compounds that were substantially more potent than those used in the first generation. Groundbreaking strategies like proteolysis-targeting chimeric molecules (PROTACs) are also being explored. Dual cytotoxic payload ADCs could address the inherent heterogeneity in tumours.
