Journal ArticleDOI

Protacs: chimeric molecules that target proteins to the Skp1-Cullin-F box complex for ubiquitination and degradation.

TL;DR: It is shown that MetAP-2 can be tethered to SCFβ-TRCP, ubiquitinated, and degraded in a Protac-1-dependent manner, which may be useful for conditional inactivation of proteins, and for targeting disease-causing proteins for destruction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of Protacs to Target Cancer-promoting Proteins for Ubiquitination and Degradation

TL;DR: It is shown that an estradiol- based Protac can enforce the ubiquitination and degradation of the α isoform of ER in vitro, and a dihydroxytestosterone-based Protac introduced into cells promotes the rapid disappearance of AR in a proteasome-dependent manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of withaferin A analogs as probes of angiogenesis.

TL;DR: WFA-LC(2)B inhibits angiogenic sprouting in vitro and it causes levels of ubiquitinated proteins to increase in tumor necrosis factor-alpha-treated human umbilical vein endothelial cells, confirming the retention of WFA's biological activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymer micelle formulations of proteasome inhibitor carfilzomib for improved metabolic stability and anticancer efficacy in human multiple myeloma and lung cancer cell lines.

TL;DR: Polymer micelles may have potential as a delivery system for CFZ with an extended therapeutic utility for nonhematologic malignancies in the future and are suggested to improve metabolic stability and cytotoxic effects of CFZ compared with free CFZ in human cancer cell lines tested.
Journal ArticleDOI

A selective solvent-free self-condensation of carbonyl compounds utilizing microwave irradiation

TL;DR: In this article, an environmentally benign microwave-assisted solvent-free self-condensation of carbonyl compounds was developed using catalytic amounts of triethylamine and lithium perchlorate.
