Creating new medicines by enhancing protein function

[entactbio @entactbio]

4/ By introducing each target to the right DUB, ENTACs enhance the function of these crucial proteins — many of which cannot be targeted with existing drugs — ultimately restoring the cell’s health.

1/ What are ENTAC™ drugs?

At their core, ENTACs — enhancement-targeting chimeras — are molecular matchmakers.

3/ Whether the target protein:
☑️ is in short supply
☑️ is in the wrong place within the cell
☑️ has suboptimal activity
…an ENTAC can be designed to recruit a DUB to fix the problem.

Welcoming some new faces at Entact!👋

We’re excited to have Fiona O'Brien, Rami Taha, and Micco Iwase join us as co-ops from @Northeastern.

We can’t wait to see their fresh perspectives and enthusiasm in action. Stay tuned for more! 🎉

2/ By recruiting the right DUB for each target, ENTACs harness the natural ability of DUBs to enhance protein function.

1/ Most drugs inhibit proteins that contribute to disease. What if we could instead enhance proteins that restore health?

At Entact we’re doing just that. Our drugs, called ENTACs, are molecular matchmakers, bringing together target proteins with enzymes called DUBs.

[entactbio @entactbio]

Our unique approach to drug discovery is driven by the question: What if we could enhance proteins that restore health, rather than inhibiting proteins that cause disease?

Earlier this month we took a quick break from our pursuit of novel drug targets and took aim at a different type of target: a high-tech, auto-scoring dartboard 🎯
One discovery: Some Entackers have clearly thrown a dart or two in their day!
