How to Terminate Transcription at the Right Place
Gene‑Wei Li, Associate Professor Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), USA Abstract Precise transcription termination is essential for defining gene boundaries and achieving proper RNA output. I will discuss two recent advances regarding transcription termination in bacteria. First, we re-defined the features required for intrinsic terminators: in addition to the canonical hairpin and U-tract, two conserved sequence […]

PULSE Challenge: From Serendipity to Design Principles Molecular Glues as a Prelude to RIPTACs
The first half of this talk traces the evolution of molecular glues, framing them as versatile proximity-inducing agents rather than just degradation tools.
The second half introduces Regulated Induced Proximity Targeting Chimeras (RIPTACs). We highlight HLD-0915, a novel RIPTAC targeting prostate cancer.
