Discovery of Novel GST Inhibitors Identified from a DNA-Encoded Library

WuXi AppTec scientists recently contributed to a study which led to the discovery and optimization of a novel series of GST inhibitors. The authors used affinity mediated DEL selection against a privileged scaffold to identify a compound with potent inhibition against SjGST and GSTM2. SAR studies, coupled with X-ray crystallography and structural analysis, revealed that …Read More >

DELvision: Improving Data-Driven Drug Discovery

DELvision is a powerful DNA encoded library (DEL)-based toolset for AIphaFold-assisted drug discovery and target sciences. In contrast to conventional screens where the target space is low-dimensional, DELvision comprises a high-dimensional map of binding relationships between small molecules and protein targets. As such, this rich data universe enables simultaneous characterization of targets and exploration of …Read More >

DNA-Encoded Macrocyclic Peptide Libraries Enable the Discovery of a Neutral MDM2–p53 Inhibitor

Macrocyclic peptides are an emerging molecular class for targeting intracellular protein–protein interactions (PPIs) and for providing an oral modality for drug targets. Herein, we use DNA-encoded cyclic peptide libraries to discover a neutral nonapeptide, UNP-6457, that inhibits MDM2–p53 interaction with an IC50 of 8.9 nM. These studies showcase how tailored DEL libraries can directly yield …Read More >
