Molecular glues, tiny molecules that connect one protein to another, are promising targets for pharmaceutical research. By linking a disease-related protein to one that triggers a cell's demolition and recycling pathways, pharmaceutical researchers have been able to develop novel therapies for otherwise drug-resistant diseases.

Scientists have achieved a new feat in molecular editing by swapping carbon for nitrogen, enabling the direct conversion of indoles into benzimidazoles. This simple switch in a one-pot method offers a hassle-free and effective way of designing medicinally relevant molecules. The work is published in Nature Chemistry.

Researchers in McGill's Department of Physics have developed a new device that can trap and study DNA molecules without touching or damaging them. The device, which uses carefully tuned electric fields, offers scientists unprecedented control over how DNA behaves in real time, creating the opportunity for faster, more precise molecular analysis that could improve diagnostics, genome mapping and the study of disease-related molecules.
