VHL
VHL (von Hippel-Lindau), an E3 ubiquitin ligase. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
As a VHL-binding ligand, VHL Ligand 8 itself has no intrinsic degradation activity; its function is to bind to the VHL E3 ubiquitin ligase with high affinity. When conjugated to a target protein ligand (e.g., an androgen receptor (AR) ligand) via an appropriate linker, the resulting PROTAC (ARD-266) can simultaneously bind to both the target protein (AR) and VHL, leading to ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of the target protein. The high potency of ARD-266 (DC50 = 0.2-1 nM in AR-positive LNCaP cells) demonstrates the effectiveness of this VHL ligand in PROTAC applications.
|
| ln Vivo |
No specific in vivo activity has been reported for this ligand alone; its in vivo degradation activity is observed only when conjugated to a target protein ligand to form a complete PROTAC molecule. ARD-266 has been developed for the treatment of prostate cancer, and its in vivo efficacy has been evaluated in preclinical models.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
N/A; as a ligand, its binding affinity to VHL is typically determined using biophysical methods such as surface plasmon resonance (SPR) or isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) as part of the validation of the final PROTAC construct. The compound is used as a synthetic intermediate. The purity of the compound is typically confirmed by HPLC, with a standard purity of ≥98%. The IUPAC name is (2S,4R)-1-((S)-2-acetamido-3,3-dimethylbutanoyl)-4-hydroxy-N-(2-hydroxy-4-(4-methylthiazol-5-yl)benzyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxamide.
|
| Cell Assay |
N/A; this ligand is not evaluated alone in cell-based assays but is used as a building block to construct VHL-recruiting PROTACs. In the synthesis of ARD-266, this VHL ligand is conjugated to an AR-targeting ligand via a linker. The resulting PROTAC is then tested in AR-positive prostate cancer cells (e.g., LNCaP) for degradation activity by Western blotting to determine the DC50. ARD-266 has been reported to degrade AR with a DC50 of 0.2-1 nM in LNCaP cells, demonstrating the high potency of this VHL ligand.
|
| Animal Protocol |
N/A; no animal studies are performed with the ligand alone. For in vivo studies of ARD-266, the complete PROTAC molecule is formulated in a suitable vehicle (e.g., 10% DMSO, 40% PEG300, 5% Tween-80, 45% saline) and administered to animal models (e.g., mouse xenografts of prostate cancer) via intraperitoneal (IP) or intravenous (IV) injection. AR degradation in tumor tissues, tumor growth inhibition, and overall animal health are monitored.

| Additional Infomation |
VHL Ligand 8 is a key building block for the synthesis of ARD-266, a highly potent and VHL-based androgen receptor (AR) PROTAC degrader. ARD-266 has been developed for the treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), a disease driven by AR signaling. This VHL ligand is part of a class of VHL-recruiting PROTACs that have shown great promise for targeting a wide range of disease-relevant proteins. The high affinity of this ligand for VHL (likely in the low nanomolar range) enables the construction of highly potent PROTACs with sub-nanomolar DC50 values. This compound is a valuable tool for developing VHL-based PROTACs for a variety of therapeutic targets.
