Just learned about #PROTACs, a promising new class of drugs that target #protein degradation! Exciting times in the world of drug discovery. 🧪💊

Did you know that #PROTACs work by recruiting an E3 ubiquitin ligase to a target protein, tagging it for degradation by the proteasome? #sciencefacts 🤓🔬

I'm fascinated by the potential of #PROTACs to target disease-causing proteins that are traditionally considered "undruggable." Can't wait to see what the future holds. #drugdiscovery 🌟
