Prospective discovery of small molecule enhancers of an E3 ligase-substrate interaction

Directed protein degradation to target hard-to-drug proteins is a promising therapeutic approach. Here, the authors report the prospective discovery of small molecule “molecular glue” that inserts into a naturally occurring E3 ligase-substrate interface leading to degradation of substrate protein....
