RIBOTACs: Small Molecules Target RNA for Degradation

Cell Chem Biol. 2019 Aug 15;26(8):1047-1049. doi: 10.1016/j.chembiol.2019.07.015.

Abstract

Selective RNA degradation is a powerful strategy to combat diseases or study specific RNA function. In this issue of Cell Chemical Biology, Costales et al. (2019) develop a small molecule that mediates selective RNA degradation with the potential for cancer therapeutics.
