PROTACs in gastrointestinal cancers
Proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) presents a powerful strategy for targeted protein degradation (TPD). The heterobifunctional PROTAC molecule consists of an E3 ligase ligand covalently linked to a protein of interest (POI) via a linker. PROTAC can induce ubiquitinated proteasomal degradation of proteins by hijacking the ubiquitin-proteasome ...

PROTACs targeting epigenetic proteins
The field of epigenetics pertains to alterations in gene function that are inherited without changes in the DNA sequence, including histone modifications, post-translational modifications of amino acids, and covalent modifications of DNA bases. These alteration pathways modulate the transformation of genotypes into specific phenotypes.

PROTAC-Induced Proteolytic Targeting [PDF]
Small-molecule modulators of protein activity are increasingly being utilized as tools to examine the functional roles of proteins. Operating at the post-translational level, these molecules provide enhanced temporal and spatial control and mitigate the potential for compensatory responses in comparison with classical genetic approaches.
