Abstact

In this study, we describe the rapid identification of potent binders for the WD40 repeat domain (WDR) of DCAF1. This was achieved by two rounds of iterative focused screening of a small set of compounds selected on the basis of internal WDR domain knowledge followed by hit expansion. Subsequent structure-based design led to nanomolar potency binders with a clear exit vector enabling DCAF1-based bifunctional degrader exploration.
