| Methods for the isoform-specific regulation of protein function are of great importance as tools to determine the functions of proteins in cells, validate targets and develop therapeutics. We will describe our progress in developing approaches that utilize engineered receptors to obtain specificity in small molecule regulation. One approach utilizes proximity accelerated alkylation to impart specificity of small molecule targeting. Another approach utilizes allosteric regulation by small molecules of receptor binding to cellular targets. |
