Tuning the open-close equilibrium of Cereblon with small molecules influences protein degradation

Suzanne O’Connor, Zoe J. Rutter, Angus D. Cowan…·Alessio Ciulli

This study identifies CRBN binders that induce or fail to induce CRBN closure, showing that closure is critical for degrader activity.

Confounding factors in targeted degradation of short-lived proteins

Vesna Vetma, Laura Casares Perez, Ján Eliaš…·Manfred Koegl

This study shows that the natural half-life of a target protein significantly affects degradation by degrader agents and highlights confounding factors in screening for protein degraders.
