CRBN-6-5-5-VHL is a VHL-based cereblon degrader that links a VHL ligand to a cereblon-binding ligand through a defined linker. Public sources describe it as a potent and selective cereblon degrader with minimal effect on classical cereblon neosubstrates IKZF1 and IKZF3. In PROTAC design, CRBN-6-5-5-VHL is a “ligase-degrading-ligase” molecule, using VHL recruitment to drive degradation of the E3 ligase substrate receptor cereblon. The cereblon-binding module engages CRBN, while the VHL ligand recruits the VHL E3 ligase complex, creating an induced-proximity event between two ubiquitin-system components. Mechanistically, it promotes ubiquitination and proteasome-dependent depletion of cereblon. It is useful for studying cereblon biology, ligase dependency, control of cereblon-mediated PROTAC responses, E3-ligase cross-degradation, and experimental validation of selective CRBN loss without broad neosubstrate degradation.

Target: CRBN-6-5-5-VHL selectively targets cereblon for VHL-mediated proteasomal degradation.
Binding site: Its CRBN ligand binds the IMiD pocket of the cereblon substrate receptor.
Mechanism of action: CRBN-6-5-5-VHL is a VHL-recruiting cereblon degrader that links a CRBN-binding ligand to a von Hippel-Lindau ligand through a defined linker. By bringing CRBN into proximity with VHL-associated ubiquitination machinery, the compound promotes selective CRBN degradation while reportedly having little effect on the CRBN substrates IKZF1 and IKZF3. This E3-directed degrader is useful for studying cereblon abundance, E3 ligase crosstalk, dependence of CRBN-recruiting PROTACs on cereblon availability, and experimental consequences of depleting an E3 substrate receptor.
