As describe in my previous post, my goal is to discover non-catalytic druggable pockets in human enzymes. These pockets could potentially be exploited for the design of ProxPharm compounds (chimeric compounds that bring two proteins in close proximity to elicit an effect of one protein on the other1). An essential aspect for the design of Read More …

My goal is to find druggable pockets in human enzymes that are non-catalytic. These non-catalytic druggable pockets may then be exploited for proximity pharmacology (ProxPharm), a novel paradigm in drug discovery where chimeric compounds bring two proteins in close proximity to elicit an effect of one protein on the other1. For example, PROTACs simultaneously bind Read More …
