Article Abstract
Fluorescent probes have gained profound use in biotechnology, drug discovery, medical diagnostics, molecular and cell biology. The development of methods for the translation of fluorophores into fluorescent probes continues to be a robust field for medicinal chemists and chemical biologists, alike. Access to new experimental designs has enabled molecular diversification and led to the identification of new approaches to probe discovery. This review provides a synopsis of the recent lessons in modern fluorescent probe discovery.

In modern drug discovery, there is a pressing need for rapid, cost-effective, and accessible methods to evaluate the biological activities of newly synthesized compounds. Traditional kinase assay platforms are often labor-intensive, time-consuming, and require specialized equipment or expertise. To address these limitations, we developed and validated a convenient in vitro kinase assay based on a recombinant biosensor, Picchu-B, constructed using a bacterial expression system.

Herein we present the rapid development of LH168, a potent and highly selective chemical probe for WDR5, streamlined by utilizing a DEL-ML (DNA encoded library-machine learning) hit as the chemical starting point. LH168 was comprehensively characterized in bioassays and demonstrated potent target engagement at the WIN-site pocket of WDR5, with an EC of approximately 10 nM, a long residence time, and exceptional proteome-wide selectivity for WDR5. In addition, we present the X-ray co-crystal structure and provide insights into the structure-activity relationships (SAR).

An increasing number of epigenome-wide association studies report tobacco smoking-associated DNA methylation levels. However, comprehensive replication studies remain scarce, particularly in placenta, despite their crucial interest in such a large-scale context. Using DNA methylation data from the EPIC array of 341 new placentas (85 smokers, 219 non-smokers, and 37 former smokers) from the EDEN cohort, we used a candidate approach to replicate maternal smoking-associated CpGs and regions previously identified using the 450K array, and an exploratory approach to discover new associations within EPIC-specific CpGs.

was identified in human and mouse Huntington's disease brain as the pathogenic exon 1 mRNA generated from aberrant splicing between exon 1 and 2 of that contributes to aggregate formation and neuronal dysfunction. Detection of the huntingtin exon 1 protein (HTT1a) has been accomplished with Meso Scale Discovery, Homogeneous Time Resolved Fluorescence and immunoprecipitation assays in Huntington's disease knock-in mice, but direct detection in homogenates by gel electrophoresis and western blot assay has been lacking. Subcellular fractions prepared from mouse and human Huntington's disease brain were separated by gel electrophoresis and probed by western blot with neoepitope monoclonal antibodies 1B12 and 11G2 directed to the C-terminal eight residues of HTT1a.

The rate of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is ~1 per 1000 patients each year. Terminal events reportedly involve repeated and prolonged apnea, suggesting a failure to autoresuscitate. To better understand the mechanisms and identify novel therapeutics, standardized tests to screen for autoresuscitation efficacy are needed in preclinical SUDEP.
