The present invention includes compounds that act as degraders of a target protein, wherein degradation is independent of the class of the target protein or its localization. In certain embodiments, the invention comprises a compound comprising a protein degradation moiety covalently bound to a linker, wherein the ClogP of the compound is equal to or higher than 1.5. In other embodiments, the target protein contemplated within the invention comprises a posttranslational modified protein or intracellular protein. In yet other embodiments, compounds of the present invention are used to treat disease states wherein protein degradation is a viable therapeutic approach, such as cancer or any sort of oxidative stress disease state.
