  1. 1. Fragment-screening by X-ray crystallography of human vaccinia related kinase 1

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Yousif Ali Rashid Majid; [2020]
    Keywords : Fragment based drug discovery; X-ray crystallography; screening; vaccinia related kinase 1; crystal optimization; fragment library design; differential scanning fluorimetry; Sprint Bioscience;

    Abstract : Fragment-screening by X-ray crystallography (XFS) is an expensive and low throughput fragment drug discovery screening method, and it requires a lot of optimization for each protein target. The advantages with this screening method are that it is very sensitive, it directly gives the three-dimensional structure of the protein-fragment complexes, and false positives are rarely obtained.

  2. 2. Fragment screening using WAC towards new SMARCA4 inhibitors

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Artur Sahakjan; [2020]
    Keywords : WAC; Fragments; SMARCA4; Library; Fragment Based Drug Discovery FBDD ; Peptide Synthesis; Affinity; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The drug discovery and development process has changed dramatically during the last decades and the growth of more efficient techniques as high throughput screening combined with combinatorial synthesis using amino acids and carboxylic acids on solid support makes it possible to investigate the affinity of molecules towards a biological target. Fragment based drug discovery (FBDD) has been implemented into different techniques with purpose of discovering new drugs. READ MORE

  4. 4. Synthesis of Substituted Pyrrolidines

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)

    Author : Olof Sjölin; [2016]
    Keywords : Pyrrolidines; Multistep synthesis; Fragment-based drug design; Drug discovery; Organic chemistry;

    Abstract : The task of medicinal chemists in a drug discoveryproject is to synthesize/design analogues to the screening hits, simultaneouslyincreasing target potency and optimizing the pharmacological properties.  This requires a wide selection of moleculesto be synthesized, where both synthetic feasibility and price of startingmaterials are of great importance.

  5. 5. Weak Affinity Chromatography : Evaluation of Different Silica Supports for Protein Immobilizationand Effect of Mobile Phases Regarding Retentionand Non-specific Binding

    University essay from Institutionen för naturvetenskap, NV

    Author : David Westerhult; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Fragment based lead discovery (FBLD), where libraries of small fragments are screened andlater on developed to lead compounds, is an alternative to the classical drug discovery methods such as high trough-put screening. Weak affinity chromatography (WAC) is a new promising approach to the screening process of FBLD. READ MORE
