Details:

* On October 31, 2013,  ZoBio has announced a collaboration with Actelion Pharmaceuticals Ltd to discover conformationally selective fragment ligands for one of Actelion’s oncology targets. Under the agreement, ZoBio will apply its proprietary TINS technology to screen a library of drug fragments for specific binding to the desired conformation of the target. When successful, ZoBio will use a variety of biophysical methods, including its novel NMR-based structural biology, to validate and provide insight into the binding mechanism of the ligands.
