The classical drug discovery paradigm begins with a known molecular target: a protein whose modulation is expected to reverse the course of a disease. However, in many pathologies, such a target does not always exist or is not sufficiently characterized.
Now, the Structural Bioinformatics and Network Biology lab at IRB Barcelona, led by Dr. Patrick Aloy, proposes a new strategy to design molecules based not on a specific protein, but on the effect they wish to induce in cells.
