Crystal structure of CRBN with compound 3
Structural highlights
DiseaseCRBN_HUMAN Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic intellectual deficit;Distal monosomy 3p. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. FunctionCRBN_HUMAN Component of some DCX (DDB1-CUL4-X-box) E3 protein ligase complex, a complex that mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins and is required for limb outgrowth and expression of the fibroblast growth factor FGF8. In the complex, may act as a substrate receptor. Regulates the assembly and neuronal surface expression of large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels in brain regions involved in memory and learning via its interaction with KCNT1.[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMedInterleukin-1 receptor associated kinase 4 (IRAK4) is an essential mediator of the IL-1R and TLR signaling pathways, both of which have been implicated in multiple autoimmune conditions. Hence, blocking the activity of IRAK4 represents an attractive approach for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. The activity of this serine/threonine kinase is dependent on its kinase and scaffolding activities; thus, degradation represents a potentially superior approach to inhibition. Herein, we detail the exploration of structure-activity relationships that ultimately led to the identification of KT-474, a potent, selective, and orally bioavailable heterobifunctional IRAK4 degrader. This represents the first heterobifunctional degrader evaluated in a nononcology indication and dosed to healthy human volunteers. This molecule successfully completed phase I studies in healthy adult volunteers and patients with atopic dermatitis or hidradenitis suppurativa. Phase II clinical trials in both of these indications have been initiated.
