Check out our latest work uncovering another connection between glycolysis and the KEAP1-NRF2 pathway. A novel PTM of a KEAP1 cysteine by a reactive glycolytic metabolite. Thanks to coauthors: Lara Ibrahim Kayla Nutsch, PhD Caroline Stanton @LabWiseman pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…


Check out our latest in print. KEAP1 senses reactive metabolites not only through 11 cysteines but a conserved sensor lysine as well. Final PhD paper from Lara Ibrahim Collaboration with @LabWiseman sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Not all TEAD inhibitors are created the same. A new covalent P-site inhibitor selectively modulates TEAD paralog-YAP interactions. Stay tuned for more liganding of TEADs by Kayla Nutsch, PhD pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

How hard is it to drug the carbohydrate response in cells? More difficult than we thought. The work of Tiger (Shaochen) You uncovers new covalent and non-covalently acting inhibitors of this transcriptional response in beta cells, an open access tool for all. nature.com/articles/s4159…




Meet Kayla Nutsch, PhD #ARCSScholar Scripps Research who is using a high-throughput drug screen to identify small molecules that inhibit interaction between proteins that regulate cell growth, organ size & regeneration. Join us on 4/27 to honor our Scholars! san-diego.arcsfoundation.org/2024-SOY-Celeb…

Check out our News&Views highlighting the work of Keriann Backus in Nature Chemical Biology : a new form of cellular stress and collateral degradation of proteins induced by electrophilic small molecule fragments. Work of Caroline Stanton + Kayla Nutsch, PhD rdcu.be/dXZpw

Check out our work in developing new regenerative medicines at Scripps Research highlighted in the The Wall Street Journal!


Meet Kayla Nutsch #ARCSScholar Scripps Research who is trying to identify small molecules that inhibit the interaction btw 2 proteins, YAP & TEAD, which regulate cell growth, organ size & regeneration. Join us on 4/13 at our SOY Celebration to learn more: san-diego.arcsfoundation.org/2025-SOY-Celeb…

Out today in ACS Publications Chem Bio, we uncovered a potential therapeutic resistance mechanism to TEAD inhibitors through direct competition of the binding pocket with increased levels of Palmitoyl-CoA. Check it out now! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…


A 2-for-1 resistance mechanism! Inspired by our colleague Michael Erb, Kayla Nutsch, PhD demonstrates that increased levels of acyl-CoAs not only promote resistance to active site HAT inhibitors but TEAD inhibitors as well. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
