Chemical modification of proteins via metal-mediated processes

University of York York Biomedical Research Institute

Chemically modified proteins can be used to understand, treat, and diagnose disease. However, relatively few chemical reactions can be used to modify proteins, severely limiting the diversity and applications of new technologies. Read more

Towards the development of a novel class of broad-spectrum anti-infective drugs

University of Strathclyde Department of Pure and Applied Chemistry

Through exceptionally strong research collaborations at the interface of chemistry, biology, and medicine, we have applied innovative thinking to the field of (Minor Groove Binders) MGBs to develop a novel platform for drug discovery with the potential to treat an impressive range of diseases, including bacterial, fungal, parasitic, and viral infections.

Developing novel targeted therapeutic approaches through induced-proximity of proteins

University of Dundee School of Life Sciences

Protein post-translational code is at the heart of protein function and signal transduction in cells. Enzymes catalyse the addition or removal of post-translational modifications (PTM), such as phosphorylation, methylation, acetylation, and ubiquitylation, on proteins. Read more
