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.

Assays for the Future of Drug Discovery

PerkinElmer

Successful researchers and companies master and use different technologies, making sure the interpretation of data does not suffer experimental or analytical bias and leads to better success rates and higher profitability for drug developers. In this assay, cells are incubated with the compound and heated.

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

Chemical con artists foil drug discovery

Molecular Design

The effects of curcumin, EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), genistein and resveratrol on four membrane proteins were reported in Ref9 and these effects would raise doubts about activity for any of these compounds (or their close structural analogs) that had been observed in a cell-based assay.
