Structure-Based Optimization of Covalent, Small-Molecule Stabilizers of the 14-3-3?/ER? Protein–Protein Interaction from Nonselective Fragments

Covalent Modifiers

Orthogonal biophysical assays, including mass spectrometry and fluorescence anisotropy, were used to establish structure–activity relationships. Here, we show the structure-based optimization of the nonselective fragment toward selective and highly potent small-molecule stabilizers of the 14-3-3σ/ERα complex.

Location-agnostic site-specific protein bioconjugation via Baylis Hillman adducts

Covalent Modifiers

Taken together, the protein bioconjugation toolkit that we disclose herein will contribute towards the generation of both mono and multi-labelled protein-small molecule bioconjugates for applications as diverse as biophysical assays, cellular imaging, and the production of therapeutic protein–drug conjugates.
