Selective degradation of CDK6 by a palbociclib based PROTAC
Open accessAbstract
Development of selective kinase inhibitors that target the ATP binding site continues to be a challenge largely due to similar binding pockets. Palbociclib is a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor that targets the ATP binding site of CDK4 and CDK6 with similar potency. The enzymatic function associated with the kinase can be effectively probed using kinase inhibitors however the kinase-independent functions cannot. Herein, we report a palbociclib based PROTAC that selectively degrades CDK6 while sparing the homolog CDK4. We used competition studies to characterize the binding and mechanism of CDK6 degradation.

Multiple studies have described numerous CRBN-recruiting dual-selective degraders and CDK6-selective degraders, but none report CDK4-selective degraders; the only reported CDK4-selective degraders are built on ribociclib.
“Whereas multiple studies have described numerous CRBN-recruiting dual-selective degraders and CDK6-selective degraders 70–73, none report CDK4-selective degraders; the only reported CDK4-selective degraders are built on a slightly different warhead, ribociclib 74.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
