Novel Bcl-2 family inhibitors by fragment and virtual screening
22 Apr 2008: This poster demonstrates that by using the EVOlution™ platform for fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD) and structure-based drug design, we have discovered by fragment and virtual screening, novel inhibitors of Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and Mcl-1. This has afforded to date four series of drug-like Bcl-2 family inhibitors with multiple actives in the micromolar range and several singleton hits. Evotec technologies

CyBi®-CrystalCreator Workstation for the Automation of Sitting Drop Protein Crystallization
27 Apr 2007: Recent developments in genomics and proteomics have led to an increase in the number of macromolecules requiring structural elucidation. Moreover, the increased size of complex proteins often requires the use of crystallography as a structural method. This poster demonstrates how CyBio’s CyBi®-CrystalCreator is able to complete the protein crystallization process in 6 plates per run. CyBio AG

Miniaturization of Protein Crystallization 19 Oct 2005: The ability to reduce the volume of protein used in a protein crystallization experiment allows the number of conditions that can be screened to be maximized, ensuring a greater chance of crystal growth. With manual pipetting and indeed many automated liquid handlers the reduction of volume is limited to 1 uL. Cartesian dispensing technology from Genomic Solutions enables miniaturization of protein crystallization experiments to nanolitre volumes. Genomic Solutions Ltd

ScreenDeveloper Workstation for Protein Crystallization 13 Oct 2005: Protein crystallisation is a multi-factorial process that depends on the interplay between many independent parameters. To determine optimal crystallisation conditions, screens for testing various conditions can be developed and ready mixed precipitation solutions applied. To optimise this process HAMILTON has developed a protein crystallisation workstation based on the MICROLAB STAR line and ScreenDeveloper software allowing setup of experiments in a few simple steps.
