| Description | Diethylene Glycol Monobenzyl Ether is a PEG-based linker, specifically designed for the synthesis of PROTACs[1]. It serves as a versatile chemical compound, enabling the formation of PROTAC molecules by connecting target protein ligands with E3 ligase ligands, ultimately leading to targeted protein degradation. |
| 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[1]. |
