Enantioselective C(sp(3))-C(sp(3)) cross-coupling of non-activated alkyl electrophiles via nickel hydride catalysis

Xile Hu, Runze Mao, Srikrishna Bera

Cross-coupling of two alkyl fragments is an efficient method to produce organic molecules rich in sp(3)-hybridized carbon centres, which are attractive candidate compounds in drug discovery. Enantioselective C(sp(3))-C(sp(3)) coupling is challenging, espec ...

Copper-Catalyzed 1,2-Methoxy Methoxycarbonylation of Alkenes with Methyl Formate and Synthetic Studies Towards the Total Synthesis of Koumine, Voacafricine A and Voacafricine B

Balázs Budai

The development of an unusual oxidative alkene difunctionalization using methyl formate and syn-thetic studies towards alkaloid natural products provide the basis of the thesis. The first chapter details the development of a method that forges methoxycarbo ...

Marker-Free Automatic Quantification of Drug-Treated Cardiomyocytes with Digital Holographic Imaging

Gerardo Turcatti, Pierre Marquet, Benjamin Rappaz, Fabien Kuttler, Bokyoung Kim

We use quantitative phase digital holographic microscopy (QP-DHM) to image and quantify the beating movement of cardiomyocytes, derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), in control and drug-treated conditions. The development of an analysis algo ...

Advancing Drug Discovery via Artificial Intelligence

Horst Vogel, Thamani Dahoun, Shuguang Yuan

Drug discovery and development are among the most important translational science activities that contribute to human health and wellbeing. However, the development of a new drug is a very complex, expensive, and long process which typically costs 2.6 bill ...

Multimodal imaging and high-throughput image-processing for drug screening on living organisms on-chip

Martinus Gijs, Michaël Unser, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann, Johan Auwerx, Matteo Cornaglia, Laurent Mouchiroud, Daniel Migliozzi

A major step for the validation of medical drugs is the screening on whole organisms, which gives the systemic information that is missing when using cellular models. Caenorhabditis elegans is a soil worm that catches the interest of researchers who study ...

Design and validation of bioorthogonal probes for cellular disease models

Pier Luca D'Alessandro

Well-validated chemical probes enable testing of biological hypotheses, investigation of target tractability and translatability to the clinical phase. Consequently, these important tool compounds play a key role in the drug discovery process. Moreover, th ...

The virtuous cycle of human genetics and mouse models in drug discovery

Johan Auwerx

Ongoing studies in many species seek to understand the origins, architecture and consequences of phenotypic variation under normal and dysfunctional conditions, with the aim of identifying targets for intervention that can prevent, stabilize or reverse dis ...

Rapid Structure Determination of Molecular Solids Using Chemical Shifts Directed by Unambiguous Prior Constraints

Arthur César Pinon, David Lyndon Emsley, Albert Hofstetter, Federico Maria Paruzzo, Martins Balodis

NMR-based crystallography approaches involving the combination of crystal structure prediction methods, ab initio calculated chemical shifts and solid-state NMR experiments are powerful methods for crystal structure determination of microcrystalline powder ...

A Bayesian approach to NMR crystal structure determination

Michele Ceriotti, David Lyndon Emsley, Albert Hofstetter, Federico Maria Paruzzo, Andrea Anelli, Edgar Albert Engel

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is particularly well suited to determine the structure of molecules and materials in powdered form. Structure determination usually proceeds by finding the best match between experimentally observed NMR chemica ...

Structure-Based Drug Design and Characterization of Sulfonyl-Piperazine Benzothiazinone Inhibitors of DprE1 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Shi-Yan Caroline Foo, Anthony Vocat, Jérémie Piton, Andréanne Lupien

Macozinone (MCZ) is a tuberculosis (TB) drug candidate that specifically targets the essential flavoenzyme DprE1, thereby blocking synthesis of the cell wall precursor decaprenyl phosphoarabinose (DPA) and provoking lysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. As ...

More Medicines for Tuberculosis: Fuelling Drug Discovery against Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Shi-Yan Caroline Foo

Tuberculosis (TB), whose etiological agent is Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), has plagued humanity since antiquity. Even with chemotherapy available today, TB is the leading cause of death due to an infectious disease. Modern day factors, suc ...
