Empowering Organic Syntheses with Quantum Mechanics Analyses
Syntheses of specifically functionalized molecules continue to be rate limiting steps (RLS) in drug discovery. Improvement in this RLS means investing only in reactions/synthetic sequences that are more likely to succeed. Structural diversifications, different substitution patterns or unique heterocyclic systems can often adversely impact the crucial step(s) of established synthetic sequences or development of feasible …Read More >

Faster with high-speed fragment screening — Accelerate your drug discovery campaign
In the past, thousands of proteins were considered undruggable. The restricted number of chemical entities available and classical methods limited the exploration of this undevelopable area. Today, the combination of novel chemical modalities and advanced technical approaches has resulted in new clinical candidates from previously undruggable targets. To accelerate your drug discovery campaign, WuXi AppTec´s …Read More >
Unlocking the potential of DEL | Inspire Hit Discovery
March 4, 2020 – By going commercial, DNA Encoded Library (DEL) technology facilitates rapid discovery and provides access to more chemical entities at lower cost. Over the years, DEL has become a disruptive drug discovery technology in comparison to traditional high-throughput screening (HTS) where it allows expedition of early stage drug discovery. However, DEL platforms don’t succeed …Read More >
