Genetics (ubiquitin) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 5 Genetics (ubiquitin) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Expanding the ligandable E3 ubiquitin ligases for targeted protein degradation

University of Dundee School of Life Sciences

Out of more than 600 E3 ubiquitin ligases in cells, currently only a handful have small molecule binders that can be used for PROteolysis Targeting Chimeras (PROTACs) and harnessed for targeted protein degradation. Read more
