Scientists unveil the complex molecular structure that causes lethal infections by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Their findings might have implications for potential therapies against antibiotic-resistant tuberculosis.
Developability assessment is a broad term covering the evaluation of potential therapeutic candidates’ drug-like properties, manufacturability and safety profile. It is important to carry out this assessment as early as possible in the pre-clinical stage development to select the candidate with the most stable profile. This can minimise the risks…
A new research programme has been launched to produce all the human secreted proteins in mammalian cell factories. The programme aims to facilitate studies of this important class of proteins, which are involved in many human diseases.

Due to their role in signal transmission from the outside to the inside of a cell, G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are prominent drug targets.
Ligands are useful tools for studying how proteins work in cells and could lead to the development of new drugs.
Researchers have made a ground-breaking discovery revealing new molecular information on how the brain regulates depression and anxiety.
As advances in protein engineering technology have led to the production of novel and more structurally complex biopharmaceuticals, the ability of these drugs to smoothly traverse the body and arrive at their intended target site has become more unpredictable...

In the past two decades, several alternative, non-radiometric assay formats have been developed for the high-throughput screening (HTS) of target classes such as protein kinases, which were previously screened using radiometric assays. Radiometric screening (and the expertise to perform such HTS) has thus declined in recent years...
