Discovery of the First Small Molecule IL-17A Blockers
21 Jan 2014In this study, small molecule blockers of IL-17A are identified using two second generation technologies for DNA-encoded chemical libraries; YoctoReactor® (yR) technology and Binder Trap Enrichment ® (BTE).

Compound LibrariesCompound libraries, or chemical libraries, are used in drug discovery for the identification of potential therapeutics compounds. Used in conjunction with high-throughput screening, the libraries of stored compounds are often generated for specific purposes as a drug target or disease model. Cheminformatics are commonly used when designing a compound library and software can be used to analyze the screening process. Cell-Based AssaysCell-based assays are used to monitor the presence, quantity and activities of a desired cellular analyte including drug molecules or biomarkers. This can reveal information on cell health (apoptosis, cytotoxicity, viability and proliferation assays), cell metabolism, cell migration and cell signaling mechanisms.
