Chromosomal translocations leading to the fusion of tropomyosin receptor kinases (TRK) with diverse partner proteins have been identified as oncogenic drivers in many adult and pediatric cancers. Whil...
Chemical inducers of proximity (CIPs) can elicit durable, and often neomorphic, biological effects through the formation of a ternary complex, even at low equilibrium occupancy of their targets. This ...
