LYTACs induce selective degradation of extracellular proteins by recruiting them to cellular receptors that mediate delivery to the lysosome. Recent development of GalNAc-LYTACs and MoDE-As targeting the liver-specific ASGPR enables cell-type-restricted lysosomal protein degradation and reveals new LYTAC design principles.Bifunctional small molecules that mediate the degradation of extracellular proteins

Bifunctional ‘MoDE-A’ molecules, which contain ligands that bind to an extracellular protein and carbohydrate residues that recruit it to the asialoglycoprotein receptor, mediate cellular uptake and lysosomal turnover of target proteins.[ASAP] Biotin as a Reactive Handle to Selectively Label Proteins and DNA with Small Molecules
