Description:
MS40 is a cereblon (CRBN)-based proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) degrader of the onco-target WD repeat domain 5 (WDR5) [1]. WDR5 is an integral component of the MLL/KMT2A lysine methyltransferase protein complex. The WDR5-binding component of MS40 is the selective inhibitor OICR-9429, and the CRBN-targeting moiety is the immunomodulatory drug pomalidomide. MS40 promotes degradation of WDR5 and the pomalidomide transcription factor neo-substrates IKZF1 and IKZF3.
