Abstract:Proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) is a state‐of‐the‐art technology for ablating undruggable targets. A PROTAC degrader achieves targeted protein degradation (TPD) through the simultaneous binding of a protein of interest (POI) and an E3 ligase to form a ternary complex. A nanofibril‐based PROTAC strategy to form a polynary (E3)m : PROTAC : (POI)n complex has not been reported in the TPD field up to this point. A recent innovation shows that a POI ligand and E3 ligase ligand don't have to be within a fused… Show more
