[1]. Rapid and direct control of target protein levels with VHL-recruiting dTAG molecules. Nat Commun. 2020 Sep 18;11(1):4687.

Chemical biology strategies for directly perturbing protein homeostasis including the degradation tag (dTAG) system provide temporal advantages over genetic approaches and improved selectivity over small molecule inhibitors. We describe dTAGV-1, an exclusively selective VHL-recruiting dTAG molecule, to rapidly degrade FKBP12F36V-tagged proteins. dTAGV-1 overcomes a limitation of previously reported CRBN-recruiting dTAG molecules to degrade recalcitrant oncogenes, supports combination degrader studies and facilitates investigations of protein function in cells and mice.

We report dTAGV-1, a potent and exclusively selective VHL-recruiting degrader of FKBP12F36V-tagged proteins. dTAGV-1 displays improved PK/PD properties and serves as an optimized tool for in vivo applications. Through evaluation of mutant KRAS degradation in PDAC models, we show that either CRBN or VHL can be co-opted to alleviate the aberrant signaling coordinated by this oncoprotein. By contrast, we observed contextual differences in the ability of these E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes to degrade EWS/FLI. This is consistent with our recent report demonstrating effective degradation of a core mediator subunit (MED14) with dTAGV-1 in HCT116 cells, a context in which CRBN-recruiting dTAG molecules were not effective. We observed that rapid MED14 degradation abrogated lineage-specifying transcriptional circuits. Together, our studies provide support for use of dTAGV-1 to overcome the current limitations of the dTAG system, enabling evaluation of the direct effects of fusion proteins recalcitrant to CRBN-recruiting dTAG molecules. [1]
Employing dTAGV-1 to study EWS/FLI, we demonstrate that VHL-mediated degradation of EWS/FLI rapidly alters downstream target protein expression and leads to pronounced growth defects in Ewing sarcoma cells, providing a powerful model system to investigate immediate consequences of EWS/FLI loss. This data supports that targeting EWS/FLI for degradation with direct-acting heterobifunctional degraders or molecular glues may be a tractable strategy and identifies potential combination strategies with BET bromodomain degraders. Together, the suite of dTAG molecules and paired controls provided in this study will facilitate evaluation of the functional consequences of precise posttranslational protein removal for an expanded target pool. The dTAG system enables rapid modulation of protein abundance and serves as a versatile strategy to determine whether targeted degradation is a promising drug development approach for a given target in vitro and in vivo.
