[Display omitted] Peptide-based inducers of estrogen receptor (ER) α and androgen receptor (AR) degradations via the ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) were developed. The designated inducers were composed of two biologically active scaffolds: the helical peptide PERM3, which is an LXXLL-like mimic o...
