Mechanism of induced protein degradation by a bifunctional PROTAC molecule. PROTAC physically connects a ubiquitin E3 ligase (E3) to a protein of interest (POI), thus inducing its ubiquitination and degradation. The picture illustrates the binary and ternary complexes, showing the POI in blue, the E3 in green, and the PROTAC in gray.
