PERTH, AUSTRALIA: 27 June 2013 – Leading peptide drug discovery company Phylogica Ltd (ASX: PYC, XETRA: PH7) has developed and patented an enhancement to its Phylomer® peptide platform to discover more sophisticated cell-penetrating drugs to help tackle disease.
This new component of Phylogica’s technology will enable more efficient screening of its library of billions of naturally occurring peptides to identify and capture those with greatest potential to target disease proteins inside of cells.
To develop a new generation of therapies, there is global demand for novel peptides that can effectively deliver biologics drugs to cells where most targets reside. These peptides need to:
- penetrate natural cell membrane barriers
- target particular parts of the cell such as nuclei, and
- ensure that drug cargos are not trapped in endosomes.
Phylogica’s technology satisfies these criteria by identifying effective cell-penetrating peptides that can deliver targeted therapeutic drug cargos to a desired location.
