Product Description
VH 101, thiol (compound 20) is the VHL ligand used in the synthesis of PROTACs.
VH 101, thiol (CAS#: 2358775-81-0) is a functionalized von-Hippel-Lindau (VHL) protein ligand used for PROTAC (proteolysis-targeting chimera) research and development. Its chemical name is (2S,4R)-1-((R)-2-(1-fluorocyclopropanecarboxamido)-3-mercapto-3-methylbutanoyl)-4-hydroxy-N-(4-(4-methylthiazol-5-yl)benzyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxamide. The compound has the molecular formula C25H31FN4O4S2 and a molecular weight of 534.67. VH 101, thiol incorporates a VHL E3 ligase ligand with a terminal thiol group, ready for conjugation to a target protein ligand. It is supplied as a white to off-white solid powder with a purity of ≥98%. The compound is a key building block for the synthesis of PROTAC molecules that induce the degradation of target proteins via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
VHL
VH 101, thiol targets the von-Hippel-Lindau (VHL) protein, which is a substrate recognition component of an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. VHL is part of the CUL2-RBX1-ELOB-ELOC E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that is involved in the ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of various substrate proteins, most notably hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α). By binding to VHL, this molecule can recruit the E3 ligase machinery to a protein of interest when conjugated to a target-binding ligand. This leads to the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of the target protein via the proteasome. The thiol functional group allows for facile conjugation to target protein ligands through disulfide bond formation or other thiol-reactive chemistry.
ln Vitro
In vitro activity of VH 101, thiol is not characterized as a pharmacological agent, as it is a synthetic building block rather than a biologically active compound. Its primary in vitro application is in the chemical synthesis of PROTAC molecules. The compound is used in conjugation reactions to attach to target protein-binding ligands via the terminal thiol group. The resulting PROTACs are then tested in cell-based assays for their ability to induce degradation of specific target proteins. VH 101, thiol itself is not typically evaluated for biological activity, as it is a research tool for PROTAC synthesis. Its characterization typically involves analytical techniques such as HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry to confirm identity and purity.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity is not applicable to VH 101, thiol, as the compound is a synthetic building block for PROTAC synthesis rather than a directly administered drug. The compound is not used in animal studies in its native form. Instead, the PROTAC molecules synthesized from VH 101, thiol may be evaluated in vivo for their ability to induce target protein degradation and exert therapeutic effects. However, the specific in vivo activity of VH 101, thiol itself has not been reported. The compound is intended for research use only and is not intended for human use. Its role is limited to the chemical synthesis of more complex molecules that may have biological activity.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme or receptor binding assay protocols are not directly applicable to VH 101, thiol, as the compound is a synthetic intermediate rather than a pharmacologically active compound. However, the VHL-binding activity of the VHL ligand moiety could be assessed using binding assays. A standard protocol for assessing VHL binding would involve surface plasmon resonance (SPR) or isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) using recombinant VHL protein and the compound as the analyte. Fluorescence polarization assays using fluorescently labeled VHL ligands and VHL protein can also be employed. However, these assays are typically performed on the final PROTAC molecules or on the parent VHL ligand rather than on the VH 101, thiol intermediate. The compound is primarily characterized by analytical techniques such as HPLC and NMR to confirm identity and purity.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assay protocols are not directly applicable to VH 101, thiol, as the compound is a synthetic building block rather than a biologically active compound. The compound is not typically tested in cell-based assays in its native form. Instead, the PROTAC molecules synthesized from VH 101, thiol are evaluated in cell-based assays for their ability to induce degradation of target proteins. A standard protocol for evaluating PROTAC activity would involve treating cells expressing the target protein with varying concentrations of the PROTAC (typically 0.1 nM to 10 μM) for 4-24 hours, followed by Western blot analysis to assess target protein levels. Cell viability, cell cycle, and apoptosis may also be assessed. However, these assays are performed on the final PROTAC molecules, not on VH 101, thiol itself.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experimental protocols are not applicable to VH 101, thiol, as the compound is a synthetic building block rather than a directly administered drug. The compound is not used in animal studies in its native form. Instead, PROTAC molecules synthesized from VH 101, thiol may be evaluated in vivo for their ability to induce target protein degradation and exert therapeutic effects. A hypothetical protocol for evaluating a PROTAC in vivo would involve administering the PROTAC to tumor-bearing mice via oral gavage or intraperitoneal injection at doses determined from preliminary pharmacokinetic and tolerability studies. Endpoints would include tumor growth inhibition, assessment of target protein degradation in tumor tissues by Western blot or immunohistochemistry, and evaluation of pharmacokinetic parameters. However, these studies are performed on the final PROTAC molecules, not on VH 101, thiol.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties are not applicable to VH 101, thiol as a directly administered compound, as it is a synthetic building block rather than a drug. The compound is not intended for in vivo administration, and its PK properties have not been characterized. However, the compound has a molecular weight of 534.67, a calculated LogP of 2.2, and a tPSA of 141. It is typically soluble in DMSO (e.g., 10 mM). The thiol functional group may be susceptible to oxidation, and the compound should be stored under inert conditions to maintain stability. Specific PK parameters such as half-life, Cmax, AUC, bioavailability, volume of distribution, and clearance have not been reported. The compound is intended for research use only and is not intended for human use.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for VH 101, thiol are limited, as the compound is intended for research use only and has not undergone systematic toxicity testing. No acute toxicity (LD50), subchronic toxicity, genotoxicity, or reproductive toxicity studies have been reported specifically for this compound. Based on its structure as a small molecule with a thiol functional group, it may have potential for reactivity with biological molecules, but specific toxicity data are lacking. The compound is not intended for human use. Researchers should follow standard safety precautions when handling the compound, including working in a fume hood, wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, and avoiding inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. The compound should be stored as a powder at -20°C for up to 3 years or in solvent at -80°C for up to 6 months.
