Applications of Systematic Molecular Scaffold Enumeration to Enrich Structure-Activity Relationship Information.
(2017-01)
Establishing structure-activity relationships (SARs) in hit identification during early stage drug discovery is important in accelerating hit confirmation and expansion. We describe the development of EnCore, a systematic ...
Structural and functional characterization of a DARPin which inhibits Ras nucleotide exchange.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-07-14)
Ras mutations are the oncogenic drivers of many human cancers and yet there are still no approved Ras-targeted cancer therapies. Inhibition of Ras nucleotide exchange is a promising new approach but better understanding ...
Maximising the potential of AKT inhibitors as anti-cancer treatments.
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2017-04-01)
PI3K/AKT signalling is commonly disrupted in human cancers, with AKT being a central component of the pathway, influencing multiple processes that are directly involved in tumourigenesis. Targeting AKT is therefore a highly ...
Structure-based drug design: aiming for a perfect fit.
(PORTLAND PRESS LTD, 2017-11-08)
Knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of therapeutically relevant targets has informed drug discovery since the first protein structures were determined using X-ray crystallography in the 1950s and 1960s. In this ...
Inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases as cancer therapeutics.
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2017-05-01)
Over the past two decades there has been a great deal of interest in the development of inhibitors of the cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). This attention initially stemmed from observations that different CDK isoforms have ...
