opto-PROTAC
Construct Patternopto-PROTAC is a light-inducible PROTAC design in which a photolabile caging group is installed on pomalidomide-based degraders to block activity in the dark and permit target protein degradation after ultraviolet A irradiation. It was demonstrated using caged pomalidomide and the PROTACs dBET1 and dALK to achieve spatiotemporal control of protein destruction.
