We concluded translational dynamics modulate the co-translational folding of P67L sufficiently to sensitive it to VX-445. Personalized medicine will need to account for system level changes beyond single point mutations in targets.

Attenuating global translation with low doses of cycloheximide (CHX) also reversed P67L VX-445 response.

Ribosomal protein knockdown reversed P67L VX-445 response, sensitizing the mutant to the drug.

P67L protein interactions change between VX-445 and VX-809, revealing an enrichment of translational proteins.

Next, we used quantitative interactomics to measure the protein homeostasis network interactions experienced by P67L and L206W under VX-809, VX-661, and VX-445 drug treatment conditions.

First we demonstrated VX-661 hyper-responsive mutant P67L fails to respond to VX-445 by both trafficking assay and electrophysiology. L206W, by contrast, responds robustly to both drugs.

The CFTR theratype story thickens with our latest paper. jbc.org/article/S0021-9258(2… We showed attenuating translation sensitizes P67L to respond to VX-445 correction. This implies a previously unknown role for co-translational folding in VX-445 response.

To fold or not to fold? That is the question. For CFTR at least! Check our new preprint from the @Plate_Lab demonstrating divergent translational dynamics may predestine rare CFTR mutations to proper folding when treated with #cysticfibrosis drugs. doi.org/10.1101/2023.02.04.5…

A new paper from @BrianOBachmann @BenjaminReisman identified the F1 sub complex of mitochondrial ATP synthase as the target for a family of glycosylated macrolides, the apoptolidins. Free to read: rdcu.be/cCu1t nature.com/articles/s41589-0…

Would be super exciting to have a diverse pool of international students to join us in fall 2021!! @VanderbiltChem ! Thank you @alliesw1 @nathandschley @Plate_Lab!
Our first #ADSE diversity event! Prospective international students chat exclusively with our #vanderbiltchem students @reecan_j @shaoqz @M__Tremblay for a first-hand account of the experience and tips on the app process. These bright minds represent countries the world over!
