Abstract excerpt
Closely related protein families evolved from common ancestral genes present a significant hurdle in developing member- and isoform-specific chemical probes, owing to their similarity in fold and function. In this piece of work, we explore an allele-specific chemical rescue strategy to activate a "dead" variant of a wildtype protein using synthetic cofactors and demonstrate its successful application to the...
