  • METHODS FOR DISCOVERING THERAPEUTICS THAT ALTER THE STABILITY OF TARGET PROTEINS
    Publication number: 20170306385
    Abstract: The present application relates, in some aspects, to screening methods to identify test compounds that stabilize or destabilize a protein of interest. The present application is based, in some aspects, on the development of a plasmid that can be used to efficiently monitor the stabilities of thousands of proteins after specific perturbations. The plasmid allows for the co-expression of two reporter proteins, each of which is placed under the control of an IRES. In this way both reporters are transcribed together (i.e. are encoded by the same mRNA) and both are translated using an IRES.
