Cereblon
Cereblon (CRBN) component of the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex (as a ligand) and neo-substrates Ikaros (IKZF1), Aiolos (IKZF3). |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
One ligand is for an E3 ubiquitin ligase, and the other is for the target protein; these two ligands are joined by a linker to form PROTACs. PROTACs target and selectively degrade target proteins by taking advantage of the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system.
The pomalidomide moiety binds cereblon with high affinity (Kd ~1-10 uM). The PEG6 linker provides optimal length (approximately 2.7 nm) to facilitate ternary complex formation in PROTACs. The terminal amine enables conjugation to carboxyl-containing target ligands via amide coupling. The compound does not induce degradation alone; it must be linked to a target binder. Compared to shorter PEG chains, PEG6 improves solubility and reduces aggregation. |
| ln Vivo |
In PROTAC efficacy studies, pomalidomide-PEG6-NH2-derived conjugates have shown enhanced in vivo degradation of various targets (e.g., BRD4, BTK) in xenograft models. The PEG6 linker confers favorable pharmacokinetics with reduced clearance. The intermediate itself is not active in vivo without conjugation. It serves as a building block for creating potent degrader molecules.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Cereblon binding is confirmed by SPR or TR-FRET. Recombinant CRBN-DDB1 is immobilized. Pomalidomide-PEG6-NH2 is flowed at 0-100 uM. Binding affinity (Kd) is measured. The PEG6 spacer does not interfere with cereblon binding. Competition assays with fluorescent pomalidomide probe give IC50 values in the low micromolar range (0.5-5 uM).
|
| Cell Assay |
Cells (e.g., MM.1S) are treated with the compound alone or as part of a PROTAC (1-1000 nM). The free PEG6-NH2 intermediate does not degrade targets. For activity testing, it must be conjugated to a warhead. The compound is used as a negative control for linker effects. Cellular uptake is enhanced by the PEG6 chain. Toxicity is low (CC50 > 100 uM).
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies are performed with PROTACs assembled from this building block. For example, a PROTAC containing pomalidomide-PEG6-NH2 is administered to xenograft mice (10-50 mg/kg, IV or IP). Tumor tissues are collected to assess target degradation by Western blot. Pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, t1/2, AUC) are determined. The intermediate alone is not dosed.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Molecular weight: ~650 g/mol (free base) plus HCl. The PEG6 chain (MW ~264) provides high water solubility (>10 mg/mL). The hydrochloride salt further enhances aqueous stability. The terminal amine is protonated at physiological pH, which may affect cellular permeability but improves solubility. The compound is stored at -20degC desiccated.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Low acute toxicity expected based on pomalidomide scaffold (LD50 > 1000 mg/kg in rodents). The PEG6 polymer is non-toxic and biocompatible. The pomalidomide moiety carries teratogenic risk; thus, the compound should be handled as a potential reproductive toxin. Standard safety precautions apply. Not for human use.
|
| Additional Infomation |
This compound is a research intermediate for PROTAC synthesis. Pomalidomide is a clinically approved immunomodulatory drug with higher potency than lenalidomide. The PEG6 linker offers a balance between solubility and permeability. Longer PEG chains (PEG6) often yield better in vivo degradation efficacy compared to shorter ones (PEG2-PEG4) due to improved ternary complex formation. No clinical status.
