  • Publication number: 20240132485
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds with the ability to stimulate/induce ubiquitination of a target protein/target proteins. The compounds of the present invention may stimulate/induce ubiquitination of a target protein/target proteins; i.e. via degradation of a target protein/target proteins by the cullin-RING ubiquitin ligase (CRL). Such target protein/target proteins may be proteins involved in diseases, like cancer, metabolic disorder, infectious disease and/or neurological disorder. The invention also relates to the compounds and composition for use as medicaments as well as pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds. Particularly, the compounds of the present invention may degrade proteins associated with cancer, metabolic disorder, infectious disease and/or neurological disorder.

  • Publication number: 20220090054
    Abstract: This invention relates to modular proteins that interact with one or more target molecules. The chimeric proteins comprise two or more repeat domains, such as tetratricopeptide repeat domains; inter-repeat loops linking the repeat domains; and one or more peptide ligands. Each peptide ligand is located in an inter-repeat loop or at the N or C terminus of the chimeric protein. The peptide ligands may include heterologous peptidyl binding motifs, such as short linear motifs (SLiMs). Chimeric proteins with various configurations and methods for their production and use are provided.
