Abstract
This minireview explores the burgeoning field of targeted protein degradation (TPD) and its promising applications in neuroscience and clinical development. TPD offers innovative strategies for modulating protein levels, presenting a paradigm shift in small-molecule drug discovery and therapeutic interventions. Importantly, small-molecule protein degraders specifically target and remove pathogenic proteins from central nervous system cells without the drug delivery challenges of genomic and antibody-based modalities. Here, we review recent advancements in TPD technologies, highlight proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) protein degrader molecules with proximity-induced degradation event-driven and iterative pharmacology, provide applications in neuroscience research, and discuss the high potential for translation of TPD into clinical settings.

期刊介绍：
Cell Chemical Biology, a Cell Press journal established in 1994 as Chemistry & Biology, focuses on publishing crucial advances in chemical biology research with broad appeal to our diverse community, spanning basic scientists to clinicians. Pioneering investigations at the chemistry-biology interface, the journal fosters collaboration between these disciplines. We encourage submissions providing significant conceptual advancements of broad interest across chemical, biological, clinical, and related fields. Particularly sought are articles utilizing chemical tools to perturb, visualize, and measure biological systems, offering unique insights into molecular mechanisms, disease biology, and therapeutics.
