PIC Design

Xanthos is the platform’s design engine. Starting with a protein target sequence, we determine 3D structures, predict ligand binding, generate linkers, predict ternary complexes and refine PIC selection through several layers of filters including molecular dynamics and QSAR. 

From Data to Hit

Automated Synthesis Lab

Hephaistos is the platform’s synthesis engine. Machine learning-driven retrosynthesis and a robotized synthesis lab create real-world, custom chemical matter for testing in our automated biology lab (Hades). Our facility includes all necessary organic synthesis equipment, such as fume hoods, evaporators, HPLC, LC-MS and microfluidic synthesis.

From Hit to Compound

Biological Validation

Hades is the platform’s biological information engine. It generates experimental data obtained from our automated lab which we began constructing mid 2021. We exploit several, different biochemical assays and phenotypic screening protocols, and have in-house capabilities in cell culture, high-content imaging, functional assays and molecular biology.

From Compound to Lead
