Recently, targeted protein degradation systems have been developed using the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Here, we established Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) knockdown mice as a model system for subjecting endogenous mouse proteins to the small molecule-assisted shutoff (SMASh) degron system. SMASh degron-tagged PD-1-mCherry in Jurkat cells and CD3+ splenocytes were degraded by the NS3/4A protease inhibitors, asunaprevir (ASV) or grazoprevir (GRV). Growth of MC-38 colon adenocarcinoma cells injected in Pdcd1-mCherry-SMASh homozygous knock-in (KI) mice was repressed by ASV or GRV. Moreover, growth of MC-38 cells was suppressed in wild-type mice transplanted with KI bone marrow cells after GRV treatment. This is the first study to use a degron tag targeting an endogenous mouse protein in vivo. Our experimental system using the SMASh degron may be employed for treating diseases and characterizing the cellular functions of essential proteins.
