RESUMEN

UM171 is a potent small molecule agonist of ex vivo human hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) self-renewal, a process that is tightly controlled by epigenetic regulation. By co-opting KBTBD4, a substrate receptor of the CULLIN3-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, UM171 promotes the degradation of members of the CoREST transcriptional corepressor complex, thereby limiting HSC attrition. However, the direct target and mechanism of action of UM171 remain unclear. Here, we reveal that UM171 acts as a molecular glue to induce high-affinity interactions between KBTBD4 and HDAC1 to promote the degradation of select HDAC1/2 corepressor complexes. Through proteomics and chemical inhibitor studies, we discover that the principal target of UM171 is HDAC1/2. Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) analysis of dimeric KBTBD4 bound to UM171 and the LSD1-HDAC1-CoREST complex unveils an unexpected asymmetric assembly, in which a single UM171 molecule enables a pair of KBTBD4 KELCH-repeat propeller domains to recruit HDAC1 by clamping on its catalytic domain. One of the KBTBD4 propellers partially masks the rim of the HDAC1 active site pocket, which is exploited by UM171 to extend the E3-neo-substrate interface. The other propeller cooperatively strengthens HDAC1 binding via a separate and distinct interface. The overall neomorphic interaction is further buttressed by an endogenous cofactor of HDAC1-CoREST, inositol hexakisphosphate, which makes direct contacts with KBTBD4 and acts as a second molecular glue. The functional relevance of the quaternary complex interaction surfaces defined by cryo-EM is demonstrated by in situ base editor scanning of KBTBD4 and HDAC1. By delineating the direct target of UM171 and its mechanism of action, our results reveal how the cooperativity offered by a large dimeric CRL E3 family can be leveraged by a small molecule degrader and establish for the first time a dual molecular glue paradigm.
