Oak Brook, IL - The June issue of SLAS Discovery features a special collection of research reviews and perspectives curated by the journal's Editorial Board.
In this issue, Guest Editor Veli-Pekka Jaakola, Ph.D., (Confo Therapeutics, Belgium) highlights a series of articles focused on new screening tools and assays that find new chemical matter for medically relevant membrane protein targets. In addition, an overview of a new and emerging protein-lipid reconstitution methodology utilizing styrene maleic acid (SMA) polymers is featured.
Articles in the special collection include:
- Screening Technologies for Inward Rectifier Potassium Channels: Discovery of New Blockers and Activators
- Correlation of Optical and Automated Patch Clamp Electrophysiology for Identification of Nav1.7 Inhibitors
- Application of High-Throughput Automated Patch-Clamp Electrophysiology to Study Voltage-Gated Ion Channel Function in Primary Cortical Cultures
- Image-Based Marker-Free Screening of GABAA Agonists, Antagonists, and Modulators
- Applied Biophysical Methods in Fragment-Based Drug Discovery
- Keeping It Clean: The Cell Culture Quality Control Experience at the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences
- A Novel Inhibition Modality for Phosphodiesterase 2A
- Development of a Cell-Based Immunodetection Assay for Simultaneous Screening of Antiviral Compounds Inhibiting Zika and Dengue Virus Replication
- The Impact of Variable Selection Coverage on Detection of Ligands from a DNA-Encoded Library Screen
- Exploring the Lower Limit of Individual DNA-Encoded Library Molecules in Selection
