COMPUTATIONAL MODELING DRIVES SELECTIVITY OF CRL4 CRBN RECRUITING PROTACs

  • Selectivity is still a major challenge in the design of CRL4CRBN recruiting PROTACs. 
  • Prediction of key interactions mediating the formation of productive ternary complexes can overcome the selectivity issues. 
  • Using structural insights from known neo-substrates, degron blocking design principles, and computational modelling lead to an analogue with an improved selectivity profile.
