Exploring a novel target in therapeutic chemistry with CETSA

27 Nov 2024

Jonathan Ellery, Director of Biology at Sitryx, shares his experience of using CETSA® from Pelago Bioscience, to investigate a new target with established chemistry. CETSA proved useful in addressing concerns about the compound's effectiveness in tissues by confirming the compound's binding and stabilization of the target, while providing insights on target engagement.

ProteomicsProteomics is the systemic bioinformatics study of proteins and amino acids, including their structure, size, function and identification. Tools used in proteomics include chromatography, blotting and gels, protein arrays, mass spectrometry and ELISA and associated analysis software. Analyzers and proteomic systems should be sensitive, high resolution, fast and may be automated for high-throughput.Drug TestingIt is essential to test the efficacy and toxicity of drugs at every stage of their development to ensure that a pharmaceutical product is fit for purpose and safe for use before reaching the stage of mass production and distribution.Drug DiscoveryDrug discovery is the process of identifying potential new medications, involving stages such as target identification, compound screening, and preclinical development. It relies on cutting-edge technologies like high-throughput screening, artificial intelligence, and molecular modeling to accelerate the identification of drug candidates. Drug discovery plays a pivotal role in developing new therapies for diseases ranging from cancer to rare genetic disorders.
