Macrocycles: Nature’s Key to Untapped Drug Targets
大环化合物:自然界未开发药物靶标的关键
Macrocycles, cyclic molecules with unique properties, offer immense potential for tackling previously undruggable targets. They combine the potency and selectivity of antibodies with the oral bioavailability of small molecules, making them ideal for targeting intracellular proteins.
大环化合物是具有独特性质的环状分子,为解决以前不可药用的靶标提供了巨大的潜力。它们将抗体的效力和选择性与小分子的口服生物利用度相结合,使其成为靶向细胞内蛋白质的理想选择。
UNP’s AI-Fueled Platform: Revolutionizing Macrocycle Drug Discovery
UNP的人工智能平台:彻底改变大环药物的发现
UNP leverages a unique platform that combines parallel chemistry with AI-driven target identification and optimization. This enables the rapid development of synthetic macrocycles with the desirable drug-like properties of their natural counterparts.
UNP利用了一个独特的平台,该平台将并行化学与AI驱动的目标识别和优化相结合。这使得合成大环化合物的快速发展具有其天然对应物所需的类似药物的性质。
“This is a pivotal moment for UNP,” says CEO and Co-Founder, Cameron Pye. “With this funding, we will accelerate the development of our platform and expand beyond oncology into new therapeutic areas. Macrocycles have the potential to revolutionize drug development, just like antibodies did in the early 2000s.”.
