Targeting TMPRSS2-ERG Fusion-Driven Prostate Cancer using Novel HBS-α-Helicomimics
Gene fusions between the androgen receptor (AR)-responsive gene TMPRSS2 and ERG occur in approximately 50% of prostate cancers (PCa), thereby promoting tumorigenesis through aberrant ERG expression. Therapeutic targeting of transcription factor-DNA interfaces remains a formidable challenge, largely owing to the entropic penalty associated with peptide folding during target engagement. Here, we…
