GtoPdb Ligand ID: 13175

Compound class: Synthetic organic
Comment: T3 is a PROTAC degrader that simultaneously targets alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) and tau proteins [1]. It was developed for potential to reduce pathological α-Syn and tau aggregations for application as a neurodegenerative disease therapy. The target protein warhead binds both α-Syn and tau, and the cereblon E3 ubiquitin ligase is engaged by a pomalidomide moiety.

Bioactivity Comments
T3 binding affinity (Kd) for α-Syn is 470 nM [1]. The DC50 for T3-induced α-Syn degradation is 1.57 μM, and for tau degradation the DC50 is 4 μM. T3 crosses the blood-brain barrier in vivo, and promotes the clearance of α-Syn and tau from the brains of MPTP-induced Parkinson's disease model mice. T3 binding affinity (Kd) for α-Syn is 470 nM.
