Development and Discovery of a Selective Degrader of Casein Kinases 1 δ/ε
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Members of the casein kinase 1 (CK1) family have emerged as key regulators of cellular signaling and as potential drug targets. Functional annotation of the 7 human isoforms would benefit from isoform-selective inhibitors, allowing studies on the role of these enzymes in normal physiology and disease pathogenesis. However, due to significant sequence homology within the catalytic domain, isoform selectivity is difficult to achieve with conventional small molecules. Here, we used a PROTAC (Proteolysis TArgeting Chimeras) approach to develop a highly selective degrader AH078 ( 37 ) targeting CK1δ and CK1ε with excellent selectivity over the highly related CK1α isoform. The developed PROTAC, AH078 ( 37 ) selectively degraded CK1δ and CK1ε with a DC 50 of 200 nM. Characterization of AH078 ( 37 ) revealed a VHL and Ubiquitin-dependent degradation mechanism. Thus, AH078 ( 37 ) represents a versatile chemical tool to study CK1δ and CK1ε function in cellular systems.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
