Selective inhibition of human translation by a drug-like compound that traps terminated protein nascent chains on the ribosome
2020-05-22
Abstract excerpt
Methods to directly inhibit gene expression using small molecules hold promise for the development of new therapeutics targeting proteins that have evaded previous attempts at drug discovery. Among these, small molecules including the drug-like compound PF-06446846 (PF846) selectively inhibit the synthesis of specific proteins, by stalling translation elongation 1–4 . These molecules also inhibit translation term...
