DIPTAR: A synthetic biology platform for functional interrogation of protein degradation

Protein degradation regulates cellular homeostasis, yet many degradation events are difficult to study because they lack a readily selectable phenotype.

Protein degradation regulates cellular homeostasis, yet many degradation events are difficult to study because they lack a readily selectable phenotype. Here, we develop Degradation-Induced Pyroptosis TArgeting Receptors (DIPTAR), a modular synthetic biology platform that…
