AUTAC4 is a Mitochondria-Targeting Autophagy-Targeting Chimera (AUTAC)
A novel chimeric molecule, namely autophagy-targeting chimera (AUTAC), is the first degrader using the autophagy mechanism. AUTAC consists of a guanine tag and a specific binder of an intracellular target of interest. In addition, AUTAC can penetrate cell membranes, and degrade fragmented mitochondria as well as proteins. Mitochondria not...
