Antibody-peptide conjugates for targeted inhibition of cysteine proteases
We developed a rational approach to design peptide-based covalent inhibitors and coupled the inhibitors with antibodies for cell-specific delivery. We used this platform to generate antibody-peptide inhibitor conjugates (APICs) that target a family of prot ...
Nature Portfolio2024Optimised three-dimensional in vitro retinoblastoma models tailored for drug discovery and clinical translatability
Retinoblastoma, while relatively rare, stands as the most prevalent intraocular cancer. In Switzerland, the survival rate approaches 100%, but it drops to less than 50% in low-income countries. The current treatment options for retinoblastoma rely on a lim ...
EPFL2023Alchemical analysis of FDA approved drugs
Philippe Schwaller, Daniel Probst, Jean-Louis Reymond, Markus Orsi
Chemical space maps help visualize similarities within molecular sets. However, there are many different molecular similarity measures resulting in a confusing number of possible comparisons. To overcome this limitation, we exploit the fact that tools desi ...
2023Rational design of protein switches: applications in synthetic biology and cancer immunotherapy
Synthetic biology aims to engineer cells as miniature biological devices to sense, process, and respond to exogenous stimuli. Protein switches are designed to sense and respond to various molecular queues in a fast and specific manner, which fits the requi ...
