Published in 2022 at "Chembiochem"

DOI: 10.1002/cbic.202200220

Abstract: Ribonuclease S (RNase S) is an enzyme that exhibits anticancer activity by degrading RNAs within cancer cells; however, the cellular uptake efficiency is low due to its small molecular size. Here we generated RNase S‐decorated… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of the American Chemical Society"

DOI: 10.1021/jacs.2c07217

Abstract: Ribonuclease targeting chimeras (RiboTACs) induce degradation of an RNA target by facilitating an interaction between an RNA and a ribonuclease (RNase). We describe the screening of a DNA-encoded library (DEL) to identify binders of monomeric… read more here.
