Biologists have traditionally relied on temperature-sensitive mutants, transcriptional switches or degradation of coding transcripts by RNAi to regulate the function of a proteinof-interest (POI) in complex biological systems.[1, 2] Despite their utility, these systems offer less conditional control than small molecule inhibitors, a limitation that is exaggerated for long-lived and/or highly abundant proteins, and can be difficult to use in live animals. Unfortunately, although chemical genetic screening has successfully identified useful “probe” compounds with novel targets, many biologically interesting proteins (eg, scaffolding proteins and transcription factors) lack specific, high-affinity small molecule ligands.[3, 4]Alternatively, several groups have developed general methods to regulate protein abundance using cell-permeable small molecule ligands for a receptor genetically fused to a POI.[5] A set of interactions commonly used for this purpose is binding of the prolyl isomerase FKB12 or the FKB12-binding domain of mammalian target of rapamycin (FRB) by rapamycin, FK506 or derivatives of these natural products. For instance, this approach has been used to recruit a POI to the proteasome or mitochondrial outer membrane, thereby leading to its degradation or mislocalization, respectively.[6, 7] However, these methods require the introduction of two fusion proteins into cells. To address this issue, several labs have developed methods in which a POI is fused to an unstable protein fragment, termed a degradation domain (DD), that is rapidly degraded in the absence of bio-orthogonal “stabilizing” ligands.[8–11] Although DD-based systems have been used for in vivo studies, their utility for long-term experiments is compromised by the potential for fluctuations in POI abundance between injections of the stabilizing ligand.[12, 13] More recently, exposure of a cryptic DD has been used to degrade FKBP12-POI fusions in response to binding of a
