Proteolysis-targeting chimera molecule and preparation method and use thereof

Abstract

The present application belongs to the technical field of proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs), and discloses a PROTAC molecule and a preparation method and use thereof. A ligand for a target protein in the PROTAC molecule of the present application is a pyridine carboxylic acid-1-oxide derivative. In cell and zebrafish experiments, the PROTAC molecule exhibits no toxic and side effects at a drug concentration allowing a desired effect. At a cellular level, an inhibition level of the PROTAC molecule for human tyrosinase (TYR) reaches less than or equal to 1 μmol/L. The PROTAC molecule in the present application can significantly reduce the generation of melanin by degrading TYR, and has excellent solubility, safety, and efficacy and a low effective concentration.
