Discovery of RNA Targeting Small Molecules – Our Toolbox for RNA Drug Discovery
Drug Discovery Chemistry Conference 2023 WuXi AppTec has developed technologies to facilitate RNA small molecule screening, an exciting frontier in drug discovery. SHAPE-MaP is applied to determine RNA structure and dynamics and verify small molecule binding. We utilize the “DNA-Zipper” strategy to enable DNA-encoded libraries to identify RNA binders. With other technologies including fragment-based drug …Read More >

Discovery Newsletter: April 2023
In this month’s newsletter, learn more about our comprehensive panel of CDK4/6 inhibitor-resistant breast cancer models and in vitro imaging assays for compound profiling. We also showcase our recent publications describing the development of HBV antigen inhibitors and noncovalent inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 3C-like protease (3CLpro).
Discovery and preclinical evaluations of GST-HG131, a novel HBV antigen inhibitor for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B infection
Chronic HBV infection (CHB) is a major contributor to liver-related deaths worldwide. The ultimate endpoint of CHB treatment is sustained HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) loss. Here, we report the design of a series of HBV surface antigen inhibitors which promotes reduction of HBV antigens in vitro and in vivo. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36089112/
