Targeting the nonenzymatic scaffold function of RIPK1 via a VHL-recruiting PROTAC synergizes with immunotherapy in melanoma.
Receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) mediates cell survival, inflammation, and cell death, and its kinase-independent scaffolding function drives tumor progression and therapeutic resistance, which cannot be eliminated by conventional RIPK1 kinase inhibitors. To overcome this limitation, we adopted proteolysis...
