ChEBI: 2-Methyl-3-hydroxypropanoate is a 3-hydroxy carboxylic acid.
Methyl 3-hydroxypropanoate is an alkyl/ether-based PROTAC linker that can be used in the synthesis of PROTACs.
PROTACs contain two different ligands connected by a linker; one is a ligand for an E3 ubiquitin ligase and the other is for the target protein. PROTACs exploit the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system to selectively degrade target proteins.
