New DNA-encoded chemical library technology to aid drug discovery and development
(Science and Technology Daily) Although researchers have made significant progress in the development of molecular therapies in recent years, the number of newly discovered active substances remains insufficient. Now, the DNA-encoded chemical library (DEL) technology, jointly developed by Harvard University in the US and ETH Zurich in Switzerland, offers a new solution. The technology can automate the synthesis and testing of billions of compounds in a matter of weeks, and can also be used to produce larger drug molecules that will act on targets that are difficult to reach with traditional small molecules.
