(1/4) Molecular glue degraders are captivating drug discovery, but how might drug resistance emerge? Read our new preprint! We identify themes of degrader resistance involving neosubstrates. #TPD biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

aaaaaaand we're officially out in ACS central science pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102… congrats again to Pallavi Gosavi, Brian Liau, and the rest of the Liau Lab team (megan yeo, Cindy, Jiaming, Nicholas Lue, @sam_hoenig) now please don't ask me to look for missing commas for a week

Check out this awesome perspective by grad student @steph__rob on exciting work by Kevin Ngan, Pallavi Gosavi, Brian Liau, Liau Lab to profile resistance-driving mutations in neosubstrates of molecular glues! Thanks ACS Central Science for the opportunity! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Excited to share our latest work revealing a repressive methylation ceiling in EZH2-mutant lymphoma! We made this discovery by finding drug addiction mutations, a strategy we expect to be broadly useful for uncovering new biology across drug targets. (1/7) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Super excited to announce that we’ve just submitted the latest Liau Lab ~manuscript~! Tldr: we used base editors + a methylation reporter to do a mutational scan of DNMT3A, a key cancer gene. Highlights below, but check out our preprint at biorxiv! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

DNMT3A is 1 of the most highly mutated genes in heme malignancies & clonal hematopoiesis with >250 mutations. Ever wonder what mutations in DNMT3A do to its function?🤔 (1/3)

We can map DNA-DNA contacts to chart 3D genomes with classic Hi-C, but where are these contacts positioned in the nucleus? Proud to release a new flavor of Hi-C, LIMe-Hi-C, a method that tags & maps DNA-DNA contacts relative to the nuclear periphery! (1/N) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

How do you get resistance mutations when a drug nearly carbon copies the substrate? 🤔 By distal, allosteric activation! See how we exploit this chemical subterfuge to systematically search for allostery in DNMT1 & UHRF1 in our latest pre-print. 1/N biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Today we share in Nature Communications our method called LIMe-Hi-C (Lamina-Inducible Methylation and Hi-C) & how we used it to uncover Polycomb-Lamina antagonism. Big thanks to Allison, Shelby, Martin Aryee, and Liau Lab, & to reviewer 1 for the detailed comments. nature.com/articles/s4146…
