Funded Activity Summary

Non-Canonical Amino Acids for Protein Analysis and Peptide Inhibitors. This interdisciplinary project aims to establish new tools to experimentally confirm 3D structure predictions of proteins that are otherwise difficult to study. A combination of innovative biochemistry, modern spectroscopy, and high-performance computing will be applied to study protein-protein and protein-ligand interactions. The project expects to generate new techniques and to test them on established drug targets. Expected outcomes include new tools which quickly inform medicinal chemists how drugs interact with their targets and how they can be improved. The developed tools should provide significant benefit to many researchers by accelerating the early stage of drug discovery, and support Australia’s fast growing biotechnology sector.
