AI Tool CHIEF Paints a Landscape of a Cancer, Refining Diagnosis, Treatment, and Prognosis

PLOS: DNA Science

Gleevec is a small molecule that interferes with entry of an enzyme – a tyrosine kinase – that enables growth signals to enter specific cells and trigger division. A name ending in “nib” means a small molecule that inhibits an enzyme called a kinase, and is short for “inhibit.”

New trends in DNA-encoded library screening

Drug Discovery World

Matthew Clark , CEO of X-Chem, looks at what the future could hold for DNA-encoded library (DEL) technology. In the 13 years since it was first described, DNA-encoded library (DEL) technology has become a firmly established approach to small molecule hit generation in drug discovery. ACS Comb Sci (2015).

Reinventing the small molecule toolbox: from proteins to RNA

Dark Matter Blog

Prior to 2015, I had a casual relationship, at best, with targeting RNA. The bulk of my nearly three decades of experience up to that point was with drugging protein targets using a variety of modalities, but principally small molecules. Screening to Set a Course Screening brings its own challenges.

Driving Toward Nanopores

Codon

And unlike traditional DNA sequencers, which parse genetic material by breaking it up into fragments and interpreting it chunk-by-chunk, a nanopore device unspools a long strand of DNA and reads it all at once. A scientist can isolate DNA and load up a flow cell in fifteen minutes. Nanopore devices work incredibly fast.

Defense-Forward Biosecurity

Codon

Allison Berke makes the case for real-time DNA sequencing and AI tools to detect pathogens before they spread widely. Reading DNA The first step in detecting a novel pathogen is recognizing it as an anomaly amidst a noisy background of other material. After copying the DNA to form a big pool, each piece is sequenced.

Antibody-drug conjugates payloads: then, now and next

Drug Target Review

2 In response, DNA-damaging agents that could target the entire cell cycle received renewed attention as ADC payloads. Groundbreaking strategies like proteolysis-targeting chimeric molecules (PROTACs) are also being explored. 4 But the horizon of ADCs is expanding even further, with the design of complex payloads.
