Enhancing intracellular accumulation and target engagement of PROTACs with reversible covalent chemistry

PROTACs have emerged as promising therapeutic agents but their cellular uptake is often inefficient. Here, the authors show that reversible covalent warhead chemistry improves PROTAC intracellular accumulation and target engagement, and develop a dual inhibitor/degrader of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase
