I don't think that 101 years ago, Otto Warburg was aware how broadly relevant his discovery was. Check out our new paper out today in Nature Metabolism, wherein we engineered the Warburg effect out of mammalian cells to improve biologics production urldefense.com/v3/__https:/...

Thanks @gassergroup.bsky.social team for helping to carry the equipment !

I’m thrilled to announce the installation of a freeze dryer at the FabLab of Chimie ParisTech 🎉
It will complement existing equipment dedicated to formulation.

Targeted Covalent Modification Strategies for Drugging the Undruggable Targets The term “undruggable” refers to proteins or other biological targets that have been historically challenging to target with conventional drugs or therapeutic strategies because of their structural, functional, or dynamic properties. Drugging such undruggable targets is essential to develop new therapies for diseases where current treatment options are limited or nonexistent. Thus, investigating methods to achieve such drugging is an important challenge in medicinal chemistry. Among the numerous methodologies for drug discovery, covalent modification of therapeutic targets has emerged as a transformative strategy. The covalent attachment of diverse functional molecules to targets provides a powerful platform for creating highly potent drugs and chemical tools as well the ability to provide valuable information on the structures and dynamics of undruggable targets. In this review, we summarize recent examples of chemical methods for the covalent modification of proteins and other biomolecules for the development of new therapeutics and to overcome drug discovery challenges and highlight how such methods contribute toward the drugging of undruggable targets. In particular, we focus on the use of covalent chemistry methods for the development of covalent drugs, target identification, drug screening, artificial modulation of post-translational modifications, cancer specific chemotherapies, and nucleic acid-based therapeutics.
