Desamino lenalidomide-5-acetonitrile is an E3 ubiquitin ligase cereblon (CRBN) ligand used to recruit the cereblon protein. Desamino lenalidomide-5-acetonitrile can be linked to a target protein ligand via a linker to form a PROTAC.
In Vitro, PROTACs contain two different ligands connected by a linker; one is a ligand for an E3 ubiquitin ligase and the other is for the target protein. PROTACs exploit the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system to selectively degrade target proteins.
