| Description | Thalidomide-NH-PEG2-COOH is a conjugate, synthesized as an E3 ligase ligand-linker, that incorporates the cereblon ligand derived from Thalidomide along with a linker commonly employed in PROTAC technology. |
| 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[2]. |
