(S,R,S)-AHPC-3-methylbutanyl acetate-methanesulfonothioate-Me-C10-NH2 TFA targets the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) E3 ubiquitin ligase through its (S,R,S)-AHPC ligand moiety. VHL is the substrate recognition component of the CUL2-RBX1-ELOB-ELOC E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. By binding to VHL with high affinity (Ki typically <1 uM), this conjugate recruits the E3 machinery to ubiquitinate target proteins brought into proximity via the terminal linker attachment. The methanesulfonothioate group may enable covalent conjugation strategies. The compound is used for VHL-recruiting PROTAC synthesis.

| ln Vitro |
In vitro, (S,R,S)-AHPC-3-methylbutanyl acetate-methanesulfonothioate-Me-C10-NH2 TFA does not exhibit direct degradation activity. Its utility is demonstrated after conjugation to target-binding warheads. PROTACs assembled using this VHL ligand have shown potent degradation (DC50 values from 0.1-100 nM) across diverse targets including BET proteins, kinases, and nuclear receptors. The C10 alkyl spacer (approximately 15 Angstrom) provides optimal distance for ternary complex formation. The methanesulfonothioate group may offer orthogonal conjugation handles for specialized PROTAC designs. The compound shows no direct cytotoxicity in HEK293 cells up to 20 uM.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo efficacy of VHL-recruiting PROTACs incorporating this conjugate has been demonstrated in various mouse xenograft models. For example, PROTACs targeting the androgen receptor (AR) for prostate cancer treatment showed significant tumor growth inhibition (TGI >60%) when administered intraperitoneally at 30 mg/kg every other day for 3 weeks. The C10 alkyl spacer enhances membrane permeability compared to shorter PEG spacers, allowing better oral absorption. No significant body weight loss or hepatotoxicity is observed at effective doses.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
A fluorescence polarization (FP) assay is used to measure binding to VHL protein. Recombinant VHL-ElonginB-ElonginC complex (10 nM) is incubated with a fluorescently labeled (S,R,S)-AHPC probe (10 nM) in assay buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 0.1% BSA, 1 mM DTT) in a 384-well plate. (S,R,S)-AHPC-3-methylbutanyl acetate-methanesulfonothioate-Me-C10-NH2 TFA is added at serial dilutions (0.1-1000 nM). After 30 minutes at room temperature, polarization is measured (ex 485 nm, em 535 nm). The IC50 for VHL binding is typically 5-50 nM.
|
| Cell Assay |
For cellular target engagement assays, HEK293T cells expressing a VHL-GFP fusion protein are used. Cells are plated in 96-well plates (2x10^4 cells/well) and treated with the complete PROTAC assembled from this conjugate (0.1-1000 nM) for 4-24 hours. Target protein degradation is analyzed by Western blot. As a control, the conjugate alone (1-10 uM) is incubated with cells for 24 hours, and no degradation is observed. Additionally, a NanoBRET target engagement assay can measure intracellular binding to VHL.
|
| Animal Protocol |
An in vivo xenograft protocol for evaluating PROTACs built with this conjugate: Female NOD/SCID mice (6-8 weeks) are implanted subcutaneously with target-expressing cancer cells (5x10⁶ cells in Matrigel). When tumors reach ~150 mm3, mice are randomized (n=8/group). The PROTAC is formulated in 5% DMSO/40% PEG300/5% Tween-80/50% saline and administered intraperitoneally at 10, 30, 100 mg/kg daily or every other day for 14-21 days. Tumor volumes are measured biweekly. Plasma is collected for PK analysis, and tumors are analyzed for target degradation by Western blot and IHC.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
For (S,R,S)-AHPC-based conjugates, the pharmacokinetics depend heavily on the final PROTAC structure. The VHL ligand itself has moderate molecular weight (~450 Da) and good permeability. The C10 alkyl spacer contributes to high lipophilicity (calculated logP ~3-4). VHL-binding PROTACs generally show moderate oral bioavailability (10-30% in rodents) due to extensive first-pass metabolism. Plasma half-life typically ranges from 2-5 hours. These conjugates are cleared primarily via hepatic metabolism (CYP3A4-mediated oxidation) and biliary excretion. Volume of distribution is moderate (1-3 L/kg).
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The conjugate (S,R,S)-AHPC-3-methylbutanyl acetate-methanesulfonothioate-Me-C10-NH2 TFA is intended for research use only. Acute toxicity is expected to be low at typical experimental doses (<100 mg/kg). The TFA counterion may cause mild irritation upon contact. The methanesulfonothioate group is a potential electrophile that could covalently modify off-target thiols at very high concentrations (>100 uM). Standard safety precautions (gloves, lab coat, eye protection) should be used when handling this compound. Ventilation is recommended when using organic solvents.
