Working collaboratively to provide creative solutions to protein  challenges in drug discovery

NMR in Drug Discovery

NMR offers unique insights into protein structure, flexibility, and interactions. At Sygnature Discovery, we use NMR to illuminate binding events, guide fragment screening, and support hit validation, helping drug discovery teams make informed decisions faster.

Structural Enablement of the VHL complex

VHL is an E3 ligase commonly used for targeted protein degradation. We have recently determined the structure of the VHL:Elongin C:Elongin B (VCB) complex with VH032 – a key building block for PROTACs.

'Direct-to-Crystal' Poster

We recently presented a poster on pioneering Direct-to-Crystal (D2C) structural approaches that enable soaking VS hits, HTS hits, and crude reaction mixtures (CRMs) from Direct-to-Biology (D2B) experiments directly into crystals, even when reaction conversions are low.
