CP5V, a PROTAC, induces mitotic inhibition, and suppresses cancer cell proliferation. It specifically degrades Cdc20 by linking Cdc20 to the VHL VBC complex for ubiquitination followed by proteasomal degradation.
JH-XI-10-02 causes proteasomal degradation, does not affect CDK8 mRNA levels. JH-XI-10-02 shows no effect on CDK19. JH-XI-10-02 is a potent and selective degrader of CDK8, with an IC50 of 159 nM, based on PROTAC.
