Abstract

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) is a major member of the PARP superfamily that is involved in DNA damage signalling and other important cellular processes. Here we report the development of a small molecule targeting PARP1 based on the PROTAC strategy. In the MDA-MB-231 cell line, the representative compound 3 can induce significant PARP1 cleavage and programmed cell death.
