“…As desirable candidates, several transcription factor-targeted PROTACs (e.g., ARV-110 ( 2 ), ARV-476, and CFT8634) are being used to conduct clinical trials ( Li, Song, et al, 2022 ). Protein-protein interaction (PPI) is crucial for both host cells ( Rodrigues et al., 2021 ) and viruses ( Ramage & Cherry, 2015 ; Torres et al., 2022 ) to maintain fundamental life processes, such as genetic regulation, signal transduction, and unit assembly. PPI interfaces are generally large and relatively flat, which increases the difficulty in developing strong and effective small-molecule inhibitors; however, several PROTACs can interfere with and abolish these PPIs ( Hughes et al., 2021 ; Ma et al., 2021 ).…”
