Figure 1. Ligand-dependent targeted protein elimination using a destabilization domain.
A small destabilization domain (green) is fused to a target protein of interest (red). The small molecule Shield-1 (pink) stabilizes the destabilization domain, protecting it from degradation. But when the molecule is removed, the entire fusion protein is rapidly degraded.
