Baker Group

@UCLChemistry group working in the area of Chemical Biology, with interests in protein modification. Account managed by PhD Students. 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬

[Sabrina Simoncelli @ssimoncelli]

🎉 New paper out in @NanoLetters! Great @UCLChemistry team effort with @VijayChudasama_ & @BakerGroupUCL 🙌 We developed stoichiometrically defined antibody–DNA conjugates via pyridazinedione chemistry enabling truly quantitative super-resolution imaging with standard IgGs! 🧬🔬

Very proud to share our latest collaborative paper with @BakerGroupUCL where we disclose the chemo- and regio-selective differential modification of cysteines on a native antibody; a first-in-class strategy! Led by the fantastic @yapyongyi! @UCLChemistry

Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) are all the rage, for good reason.

They're generating stellar efficacy results in clinic, though they're not perfect.

I looked through 40+ ADC companies founded after 2010 to see what each was trying to improve on and with what new approach. ⬇️

[Baker Group @BakerGroupUCL]

Great few days at @World_ADC hearing about the latest developments in the field of Antibody-Drug Conjugates and of course catching up with old friends 🔬🧑‍🔬

[Baker Group @BakerGroupUCL]

Welcome to our new post-doc within the Chudasama and Baker groups @suman_chembio!

Suman will be working on protein modification throughout his post-doc.

Looking forward to some exciting research ahead! 🧪
