Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is an enzyme that metabolizes tryptophan, and its activity can lead to immunosuppression, thereby allowing tumors to evade the immune system. IDO1 can also suppress the immune response through mechanisms independent of its enzyme activity, and this may be difficult to target with current inhibitors.  Drugs targeting only IDO1 enzyme activity …Read More >

DNA-encoded library (DEL) technology has been recognized as a major screening method with unique advantages for offering vast chemical diversity and multiplexed affinity-based screening. Recently, solid-phase On-bead DEL, also known as one bead one compound (OBOC), has been developed to further expand DEL screening from affinity-based screening into biochemical activity screening. At the 2025 SLAS …Read More >

Chemical inducers of proximity (CIPs) are small molecules that induce the proximity of two biological targets, usually proteins. Molecular glues and PROteolysis TArgeting Chimeras (PROTACs®) are among the best-known CIPs. These molecules utilize the endogenous E3-based proteolysis pathway to induce proximity between the target protein and E3 ligase, thereby triggering targeted protein degradation. At the …Read More >

Introduction: Molecular glues (MGs) are a class of small molecules that alter the surface properties of proteins to strengthen or induce protein-protein interactions (PPI), leading to specific biological effects like protein degradation, pathway inhibition, or activation. Their unique properties endow them with high selectivity and bioavailability, allowing for controlled drug release. Molecular glues show great …Read More >

Targeted protein degradation (TPD) technology has become one of the most promising methods to remove specific disease-related proteins using cellular self-destruction mechanisms. This technology is enabling researchers to pursue targets that were previously considered undruggable and to address the resistance issue of small molecule inhibitors. Since 2016, WuXi AppTec has built a comprehensive TPD discovery …Read More >

Casein kinase 2-interacting protein-1 (CKIP-1) performs a critical negative role in the regulation of bone formation. Accumulated evidence strongly supports CKIP-1 as an attractive therapeutic target in osteoporosis.  As a scaffold protein lacking enzymatic activity, CKIP-1 seems to be an undruggable target, and the development of selective small molecule inhibitors targeting CKIP-1 has proven to …Read More >
