Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal Structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis MenB, a Key Enzyme in Vitamin K2 Biosynthesis

TL;DR: A catalytic mechanism in which MenB enables proton transfer within the substrate to yield an oxyanion as the initial step in catalysis is postulate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal Structures of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Kasa Show Mode of Action within Cell Wall Biosynthesis and its Inhibition by Thiolactomycin

TL;DR: This work determined the crystal structures of KasA, a key enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of long-chain fatty acids, in its apo-form and bound to the natural product inhibitor thiolactomycin, and identified a polyethylene glycol molecule that mimics a fatty acid substrate of approximately 40 carbon atoms length.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development and validation of reagents and assays for EZH2 peptide and nucleosome high-throughput screens

TL;DR: The strategy to screen EZH2 with either a surrogate peptide or a natural substrate led to the identification of the same tractable series, which are reversible, reversible, are [3H]-S-adenosyl-L-methionine competitive, and display biochemical inhibition of H3K27 methylation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prioritizing multiple therapeutic targets in parallel using automated DNA-encoded library screening.

TL;DR: The findings demonstrate that parallel ELT selections can be used to assess ligandability and highlight opportunities for successful lead and tool discovery.
