title: Screening for inducers of kinase degradation.
abstract: Targeted small molecule-induced protein degradation is a promising approach to inhibit signaling within kinase cascades. In this issue, researchers describe a simple assay for the rapid, high-throughput identification of novel agents that promote degradation of the kinases Her2 and EGFR.
