ABSTRACT
Targeted degradation of proteins has emerged as a powerful method for modulating protein homeostasis. Identification of suitable degraders is essential for achieving effective protein degradation. Here, we present a non-covalent degrader construction strategy, based on a modular supramolecular co-assembly system consisting of two self-assembling peptide ligands that bind cell membrane receptors and the protein of interest simultaneously, resulting in targeted protein degradation. The developed lysosome-targeting co-assemblies (LYTACAs) can induce lysosomal degradation of extracellular protein IL-17A and membrane protein PD-L1 in several scavenger receptor A-expressing cell lines. The IL-17A-degrading co-assembly has been applied in an imiquimod-induced psoriasis mouse model, where it decreases IL-17A levels in the skin lesion and alleviates psoriasis-like inflammation. Extending to asialoglycoprotein receptor-related protein degradation, LYTACAs have demonstrated the versatility and potential in streamlining degraders for extracellular and membrane proteins.
