Across multiple examples we find that inhibitors can tilt the balance towards less stable protein states. This triggers kinase destabilisation via native degradation routes. Spoiler: this also works for non-kinases (following soon)...

Inhibitors supercharge kinase turnover through native proteolytic circuits - Nature Inhibitor-induced kinase degradation is a common event that positions supercharging of endogenous degradation circuits as an alternative to classical proximity-inducing degraders.

Excited to share our work on inhibitors turning degraders now out: doi.org/10.1038/s415...

๐Ÿงฌ Kinase Inhibitors can do more than block their targets!
A study by @cemm.oeaw.ac.at-@aithyra.bsky.social and #IRBBarcelona reveals that many inhibitors also trigger the degradation of the kinases, uncovering an overlooked mechanism with therapeutic potential.

๐ŸงฌKinase inhibitors that degrade?
New study by CeMM, @aithyra.bsky.social & @irbbarcelona.org reveals that kinase inhibitors can also trigger the degradation of their target proteins, becoming a new tool for drug development & #TDP research.
