Technical Notes:

SBGrid on HPC: We've published some initial documentation on using individual or group SBGrid installations on HPC resources where creating a `/programs/` link is problematic. Please contact us at [email protected] if you encounter problems or identify areas for improvement. We welcome your feedback

Dual recruitment of two CCM2 molecules to KRIT1 suppresses KLF4 expression - Nature Communications

Loss of KRIT1 or CCM2 drives harmful KLF4 overexpression in brain vessels. Here, authors show a single KRIT1 must recruit two CCM2 proteins via dual PTB-NPxF interactions to suppress KLF4, revealing a previously unknown PTB clustering mechanism.

High-throughput ligand diversification to discover chemical inducers of proximity - Nature Chemical Biology

Molecular glue degraders have consistently been discovered retrospectively, despite their increasing importance. Herein, a high-throughput approach is described that modifies existing ligands into molecular glue degraders.

Supercoiled DNA recognition and cleavage control in topoisomerase VI - Nature Communications

DNA recognition and cleavage control in type II topoisomerases are poorly understood processes. Here, the authors determine cleaved and uncleaved structures of supercoiled DNA-bound topoisomerase VI that reveal how the enzyme activates its cleavage state and prefers to act at deformable substrates.
