Last paper post of the year!

Amazing Nature Chemical Biology paper by the group of Christina Woo. PCMT1 installs cyclic imides on asparagines at the C-terminus of proteins via SAM-dependent methyl ester formation, which then leads to degradation using cereblon.

Aurigene to Present A-PROX Targeted Degradation Platform Data at AACR-NCI-EORTC 2025

Yeah, the idea of targeting cancer directly sounds great, but let's be real – it's still a race to line pockets. Big Pharma doesn't care about 'free and fast.' They want their profits. If these treatments ever reach the streets, it's gonna be a fight.

Fuck yeah, tearing down cancer with targeted degraders? Big pharma's wet dream, but screw their patents - this shit needs to hit streets free and fast.

Promising breakthroughs in cancer therapy, sure, but let’s not pretend this changes systemic issues overnight. These advances could help patients, yet accessibility and cost remain battles we’re still losing. Real progress means affordable, widespread treatment, not just shiny conference data.
