                                        Comment: NK7-902 is reported as a cereblon-based molecular glue degrader of NIMA-related kinase 7 (NEK7) [5]. It functions to inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome activation.  A cryo-EM study has resolved the structure of the NEK7/NK7-902/CRBN-DDB1 ternary complex.

| Bioactivity Comments | 
| Promotes degradation of CRBN neosubstrate IKZF2, but not of IKZF1 and GSPT1. DC50 for degradation of NEK7 in human monocytes is 0.2 nM, and the Dmax is >95% (80% degradation achieved within 1 h). Degradation efficacy was blunted if the compound was introduced after NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Does not induce NEK6 degradation. |
