“…The first generation of this technology came in the form of lysosome-targeting chimeras (LYTACs), which are bifunctional molecules comprised of an antibody that binds to a cell surface or secreted protein of interest (POI) conjugated to a ligand that binds a lysosome trafficking receptor such as the insulin growth factor 2 receptor (IGF2R, also known as CI-M6PR) (Figure 1A) (2,3,4). Since then, other technologies have been developed, such as AbTACs (5), ProTABs (6), and KineTACs (7), among others (8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18, 19, 20, 21, 22). These use similar bifunctional molecules to recruit POIs either to lysosome trafficking receptors or plasma membrane-associated ubiquitin ligases and have opened a new chapter in the field of targeted protein degradation.…”
