DNA-Encoded Libraries for the Discovery of Small-Molecule Hits
Drug Discovery Chemistry Conference 2023 DNA-Encoded library (DEL) screening is now commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry to find novel chemical matter that modulates protein targets of interest. Point-by-point, Dr. Alex Satz, Executive Director, WuXi Biology will discuss the primary challenges and limitations of DEL screening, and concisely state the current abilities of the technology …Read More >
Case Study: DEL Data Combined with In Silico Deep-Learning Model
Read our newest case study on enhancing predictivity of drug-target interactions. In collaboration with Cyclica, WuXi AppTec scientists engaged in a study to understand the synergies between DNA encoded library (DEL) screening and Cyclica’s MatchMaker™ deep-learning model for protein-ligand interactions. Our findings indicate that combining experimental DEL data with computational analysis from MatchMaker™ can lead …Read More >

Meeting Neurodegenerative Disease Head-On with Emerging Drug Discovery Strategies
Chronic neurodegenerative diseases encompass a variety of progressive conditions that affect neurons, including Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and other forms of dementia. They are among the most common and challenging central nervous system (CNS) diseases. “Many companies had stopped their research program into neurodegenerative diseases, but now sophisticated technology advances have became more broadly …Read More >
