Abstract:
:In this issue of Cell Chemical Biology, Olson et al. (2019) develop the first selective CDK7 irreversible inhibitor. Elegant cell-based studies using a CDK7 mutant that is not covalently engaged by the probe helped decipher the effects of inhibiting the kinase on the cell cycle and gene transcription.
