Nature’s chemistry has evolved under billions of years of selective pressure to modulate life’s fundamental phenomena. This has led to incredible diversity of chemical properties and biological activity. This diversity is uncharacteristic of traditional small molecule libraries and inaccessible to even cutting-edge library generation technologies. We’re harnessing this untapped potential to rapidly deliver new medicines, and hope, for complex diseases. Here’s how we do it.
Our chemistry provides a unique opportunity to access known and emerging modalities of tuning biology. We are rapidly identifying novel chemistry that degrades or stabilizes proteins by acting like a molecular glue, changes the shape of difficult-to-drug proteins allowing modulation of an undruggable target, or covalently inhibits specific proteins.
Uncovering the biological basis of the effects of nature’s diverse chemistry is a powerful way to understand the basis of disease. Just as the study of rapamycin once led to the discovery of mTOR signaling, we have built technologies that rapidly uncover novel disease targets while simultaneously advancing these molecules as new medicines.
