BRD4[1]
BRD4 (Bromodomain-containing protein 4) and VHL (von Hippel-Lindau E3 ubiquitin ligase). PROTAC BRD4 Degrader-9 simultaneously binds to BRD4 (a chromatin reader essential for oncogene transcription) and VHL (an E3 ligase), leading to ubiquitination of BRD4 and its subsequent proteasomal degradation. This targeted degradation approach eliminates the entire BRD4 protein rather than merely inhibiting its bromodomain function. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
PROTAC BRD4 Degrader-9 can be conjugated with STEAP1 and CLL1 antibodies to degrade the BRD4 protein in PC3 prostate cancer cells, with DC50 values of 0.86 nM (STEAP1 conjugate) and 7.6 nM (CLL1 conjugate), indicating sub-nanomolar to low-nanomolar potency for targeted degradation. The compound is a potent PROTAC consisting of a VHL ligand linked to a BRD4 ligand.
|
| ln Vivo |
No specific in vivo activity data has been reported. As a targeted protein degrader, the BRD4 Degrader-9-antibody conjugates are expected to demonstrate antitumor efficacy in xenograft models of prostate cancer and other BRD4-driven malignancies. In vivo validation would assess tumor growth inhibition, BRD4 target engagement (by Western blot), and pharmacodynamic markers.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
PROTAC BRD4 Degrader-9 is a potent PROTAC. For cell-free assays to assess ternary complex formation, purified VHL and BRD4 proteins are incubated with varying concentrations of PROTAC BRD4 Degrader-9 (0.1 nM-10 uM) in Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.5) containing 5% DMSO, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM TCEP, and 0.01% Tween-20. After incubation for 1-2 hours at 4degC, the formation of the VHL-PROTAC-BRD4 ternary complex can be detected by size-exclusion chromatography or by AlphaLISA/TR-FRET assays using labeled proteins. DC50 values are derived from degradation curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular studies, PC3 human prostate cancer cells (2×10⁵ cells/well) are seeded in 6-well plates and treated with PROTAC BRD4 Degrader-9 (0.1 nM-1 uM) for 6-24 hours. Cells are harvested, lysed, and BRD4 protein levels are quantified by Western blotting using anti-BRD4 antibody. GAPDH or beta-actin serves as a loading control. The concentration at which 50% of BRD4 protein is degraded (DC50) is calculated. To assess catalytic activity, a washout experiment is performed: cells are treated for 4-6 hours, washed extensively, and then incubated in fresh media for an additional 18-24 hours. BRD4 degradation is measured to determine if it persists after compound removal.
|
| Animal Protocol |
No in vivo animal study protocols are documented for this specific PROTAC. For testing STEAP1 or CLL1 antibody conjugates, a typical protocol would involve establishing subcutaneous PC3 tumor xenografts in 6-8 week old male NSG mice. When tumors reach 100-150 mm3, the antibody-PROTAC conjugate (e.g., anti-STEAP1-PROTAC BRD4 Degrader-9) is administered intravenously at 1-10 mg/kg, once weekly for 3-4 weeks. Tumor volume is measured twice weekly. Tumors are harvested for BRD4 IHC and TUNEL staining. Body weight and serum markers are monitored.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No pharmacokinetic data has been reported for PROTAC BRD4 Degrader-9. The molecular weight of the PROTAC alone is 1312.5 g/mol, which exceeds the typical Lipinski Rule-of-Five limit for oral bioavailability. Therefore, the PROTAC is likely administered via conjugation to antibodies or via injection. Antibody-conjugated PROTACs have a long plasma half-life (days to weeks) due to the antibody-mediated PK.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No toxicity data has been reported. The compound is a research chemical for targeted protein degradation. Potential toxicities may include off-target degradation of other bromodomain-containing proteins or effects on VHL pathway function. As an antibody conjugate, the toxicity profile is determined by the targeting antibody and the degradation of BRD4 in normal tissues.
