Abstract

Velcrins are molecular glues that induce complex formation between PDE3A and SLFN12. The PDE3A-SLFN12 complex activates the SLFN12 RNase, resulting in cleavage of the specific substrate, tRNA-Leu-TAA, global inhibition of translation, and death of cells expressing sufficient levels of both proteins. Here, unanswered questions about the mechanism of action and therapeutic promise of velcrin compounds are discussed.
