Re-Imagining Med Chem Strategies: the Tyranny of the n+1 Compound

DrugBaron

Finding small molecule drugs is much harder than finding a needle in a haystack – discovering the right arrangement of atoms to bind precisely to a protein target to elicit a particular response is a problem of vast dimensionality. Yet the situation with small molecules is even worse.

Following our pole star to a transformative collaboration

Dark Matter Blog

The second is that while it may be hard to achieve molecular recognition, it’s even harder to make a drug, which is to say a molecule that you can eat, that distributes throughout the body, and survives long enough to find its target. Consequently, we were going to stick to chemical space where we know real drugs live.
