Target-selective degradation of proteins by a light-activated 2-phenylquinoline-estradiol hybrid
A designed 2-phenylquinoline-estradiol hybrid effectively and selectively degraded the target transcription factor, human estrogen receptor-α (hER-α), which has a high affinity with the estradiol moiety, under long-wavelength UV photo-irradiation, without
Molecular design, chemical synthesis, and biological evaluation of agents that selectively photo-degrade the transcription factor estrogen receptor-α
2-Phenylquinoline (1) degraded proteins under photo-irradiation with long-wavelength UV light without additives and under neutral conditions. We designed and synthesized a 2-phenylquinoline-estrogen receptor-α (ER-α) agonist (hybrid 2) and a 2-phenylquino
