Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic analysis in UK Biobank links insulin resistance and transendothelial migration pathways to coronary artery disease
Derek Klarin,Derek Klarin,Qiuyu Martin Zhu,Qiuyu Martin Zhu,Connor A. Emdin,Connor A. Emdin,Mark Chaffin,Mark Chaffin,Steven Horner,Brian J. McMillan,Alison Leed,Michael E. Weale,Chris C. A.

TL;DR: Phenome-wide association scanning showed that CCDC92 likely affects coronary artery disease through insulin resistance pathways, whereas experimental analysis suggests that ARHGEF26 influences the transendothelial migration of leukocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the Prion Protein Binding Properties of Antisense Oligonucleotides
Andrew G. Reidenbach,Eric Vallabh Minikel,Hien T Zhao,Stacy G Guzman,Stacy G Guzman,Stacy G Guzman,Alison Leed,Michael F. Mesleh,Holly B. Kordasiewicz,Stuart L. Schreiber,Stuart L. Schreiber,Sonia M Vallabh +11 more
TL;DR: The findings support the further development of PrP-lowering ASOs and of CSF PrP as a pharmacodynamic biomarker and salt dependence of the affinity measured by isothermal titration calorimetry are supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Maltose-Binding Protein Fusion Construct Yields a Robust Crystallography Platform for MCL1.
Matthew C. Clifton,David M. Dranow,Alison Leed,Ben Fulroth,James W. Fairman,Jan Abendroth,Kateri Atkins,Ellen Wallace,Dazhong Fan,Guoping Xu,Z. J. Ni,Douglas S. Daniels,John Van Drie,Guo Wei,Alex B. Burgin,Todd R. Golub,Todd R. Golub,Brian K. Hubbard,Michael H Serrano-Wu +18 more
TL;DR: In the ligand-independent crystal form, this MBP-MCL1 construct dramatically improves the structural understanding of well-validated MCL1 ligands, and will likely catalyze the structure-based optimization of high affinity M CL1 inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single Diastereomer of a Macrolactam Core Binds Specifically to Myeloid Cell Leukemia 1 (MCL1).
Chao Fang,Brendan R. D'Souza,Christopher F. Thompson,Matthew C. Clifton,James W. Fairman,Ben Fulroth,Alison Leed,Patrick McCarren,Lili Wang,Yikai Wang,Clementine Feau,Virendar K. Kaushik,Michelle Palmer,Guo Wei,Todd R. Golub,Brian K. Hubbard,Michael H Serrano-Wu +16 more
TL;DR: A direct binding screen of 100 000 sp(3)-rich molecules identified a single diastereomer of a macrolactam core that binds specifically to myeloid cell leukemia 1 (MCL1).
Journal ArticleDOI
Multimodal small-molecule screening for human prion protein binders

Kaushik,Douglas S. Auld,Stuart L. Schreiber,Stuart L. Schreiber,Eric Vallabh Minikel +27 more
TL;DR: The exceptionally low hit rate observed here suggests that PrP is a difficult target for small-molecule binders, whereas orthogonal binder discovery methods could yield high-affinity compounds, non-small-Molecule modalities may offer independent paths forward against prion disease.
