Small molecule modulators of protein activity are increasingly being utilized as tools to examine the functional roles of proteins. Operating at the post-translational level, these molecules provide enhanced temporal and spatial control and mitigate the potential for compensatory responses in comparison with classical genetic approaches. Proteolysis targeting chimeric molecules, or PROTACs, are small molecules that inhibit the function of their target proteins by targeting them for degradation by the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS). This chapter summarizes strategies for PROTAC preparation and characterization.
