AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a method for regulating protein activity by using a ubiquitin pathway protein binding moiety and a targeting moiety that recognizes a target protein. This results in the ubiquitin pathway protein binding to the target protein, which can lead to its degradation or inhibition of function. The invention also provides a library of compounds that can be used to screen for target proteins and to treat disease states or conditions through the degradation of the target protein. The technical effects of the invention include the ability to control protein levels and the development of new treatments for disease states or conditions.

Problems solved by technology

Protein-protein interaction interactions are notoriously difficult to target using small molecules due to their large contact surfaces and the shallow grooves or flat interfaces involved.

[0423]

[0424]A solution of 2-ethoxybenzoic acid (commercially available from for example Aldrich) (29 mg, 0.17 mmol), (2S,4R)-4-hydroxy-N-(4-(oxazol-5-yl)benzyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxamide (50 mg, 0.17 mmol) and DIPEA (0.061 mL, 0.35 mmol) in DMF (1 mL) was treated with HATU (80 mg, 0.21 mmol) and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours. The product was then subjected to purification by mass-directed automated preparative HPLC (formic acid modifier) to afford the title compound (38 mg, 0.087 mmol, 50% yield).

Abstract

The present invention relates to bifunctional compounds, which find utility as modulators of targeted ubiquitination, especially inhibitors of a variety of polypeptides and other proteins which are degraded and / or otherwise inhibited by bifunctional compounds according to the present invention. In particular, the present invention is directed to compounds, which contain on one end a VHL ligand which binds to the ubiquitin ligase and on the other end a moiety which binds a target protein such that the target protein is placed in proximity to the ubiquitin ligase to effect degradation (and inhibition) of that protein. The present invention exhibits a broad range of pharmacological activities associated with compounds according to the present invention, consistent with the degradation / inhibition of targeted polypeptides.
