Proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are heterobifunctional compounds with molecular weights and other properties that lie outside the classic 'rule-of-five' space. Consequently, PROTACs have unique challenges associated with their development as potential therapeutic agents. This review summarizes and analyzes a representative set of recent PROTACs and highlights some of the potential future challenges facing this promising modality.
蛋白酶靶向嵌合体(PROTACs)是一类异双功能化合物,其分子量和其他性质超出了经典的“五规则”范围。因此,PROTACs作为潜在治疗药物的开发面临着独特的挑战。本综述总结并分析了一组具有代表性的近期PROTACs,并强调了这种有前景的药物形式未来可能面临的一些挑战。
