New image-based cellular profiling tool peers deeply into metabolic biology

Broad Institute

Common genetic variants associated with cardiometabolic disease can produce phenotype changes of such small effect that they can be difficult to characterize. The researchers also looked at the tool’s ability to detect changes in cellular phenotypes after exposure to drugs and small molecule compounds.

Pathogen data in ChEMBL

The ChEMBL-og

In ChEMBL version 29, there are over 2 M bioactivity data points against fungal, bacterial or viral targets (for 460 K compounds) available for pathogen-related research. How can I find pathogen data? On the ChEMBL interface, the organism taxonomy is available as a filter that can be applied to bioactivity data.

On quality criteria for covalent and degrader probes

Molecular Design

In any case, it needed to be made clear that the quality criteria proposed by the authors for covalently acting small-molecule probes only apply to probes that act irreversibly. Subscripting doesn't work well in blogger and so I'll use K.i As measurement of k.inact/K.i
