Novel approaches for the rational design of PROTAC linkers

open access: yesExploration of Targeted Anti-tumor Therapy, 2020
Proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) represent a promising class of hetero-bivalent molecules that facilitate ubiquitination of a target protein by simultaneously binding and bringing together both the E3 enzyme and the target.

From classic medicinal chemistry to state‐of‐the‐art interdisciplinary medicine: Recent advances in proteolysis‐targeting chimeras technology

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, 2023
Proteolysis‐targeting chimeras (PROTACs) is a targeted protein degradation (TPD) technique effected by hijacking the ubiquitin‐proteasome system (UPS) of the cells.

Design, synthesis, and biological characterization of a potent STAT3 degrader for the treatment of gastric cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Gastric cancer is a common malignant tumor that threatens human health, and its occurrence and development mechanism is a complex process involving multiple genes and multiple signals.

PROTAC-Design-Evaluator (PRODE): An Advanced Method for In-Silico PROTAC Design

open access: yesACS Omega, 2023
Abstract PROTAC (proteolysis-targeting chimeras) is a rapidly evolving technology to target undruggable targets. The mechanism by which this happens is when a bifunctional molecule binds to a target protein and also brings in proximity an E3 ubiquitin ligase to trigger ubiquitination and degradation of the target protein.

BRD4-targeting PROTAC as a unique tool to study biomolecular condensates

open access: yesCell Discovery, 2023
Biomolecular condensates play key roles in various biological processes. However, specific condensation modulators are currently lacking. PROTAC is a new technology that can use small molecules to degrade target proteins specifically.

PROTACs– a game-changing technology [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Opinion on Drug Discovery, 2019
Introduction: Proteolysis - targeting chimeras (PROTACs) have emerged as a new modality with the potential to revolutionize drug discovery. PROTACs are heterobifunctional molecules comprising of a ligand targeting a protein of interest, a ligand targeting an E3 ligase and a connecting linker.

Protacs for Treatment of Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Research, 2010
Protein degradation is the cell's mechanism of eliminating misfolded or unwanted proteins. The pathway by which proteins are degraded occurs through the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Ubiquitin is a small 9-kD (kDa) protein that is attached to proteins. A minimum of four ubiquitins are required for proteins to be recognized by the degradation machinery ...

PROTAC Technology: Opportunities and Challenges [PDF]

open access: yesACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2020
PROTACs-induced targeted protein degradation has emerged as a novel therapeutic strategy in drug development and attracted the favor of academic institutions, large pharmaceutical enterprises (e.g., AstraZeneca, Bayer, Novartis, Amgen, Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline, Merck, and Boehringer Ingelheim, etc.), and biotechnology companies.
