pGK-GFP-IRF4

This part is design for the validification of our BioPROTC system. In our design, we fused GFP and IRF4 together and thus we can use both anti-GFP or anti-IRF4 BioPROTAC to detect the degradation efficiency of both protein.

we transfected HEK293T cells in a 12-well plate with 1 μg of pLVX-TREG3S-FLAG-PU.1-(SSG)3-SPOP-TetOne-Puro and 1 μg of pcDNA3.1-CMV-FLAG-IRF4/pcDNA3.1-CMV-HA-IRF4, induced expression with 1 μg/mL of doxycycline for 48h, and collected the protein for western blot analysis. The results are shown in Figure 3-2, where we observed significant degradation of both HA-IRF4 and FLAG-IRF4.

Due to time constraints, we have not been able to conduct this experiment in the THP-1 cell line. However, in the HEK293T cell experiment, we have observed a certain degree of IRF4 degradation, which is a breakthrough that has not been achieved in previous research. We are very excited about these results. We will then continue to optimize the transfection/infection efficiency for THP-1 cells and have also contacted Professor Chong Wu, a macrophage expert from Sun Yat-sen University School of Life Sciences, to explore ways to optimize related experiments for THP-1 cells. Additionally, we will conduct further experimental validation for the designed anti-IRF5 BioPROTAC and optimize anti-IRF4 BioPROTAC using bioinformatics methods to enhance its degradation efficiency.
