Welcome to Conformetrix
Conformetrix is a drug discovery company at the cutting-edge of ligand-based design. We discover new drugs by copying the templates provided by other bioactive ligands.
Our platform technology is a
powerful set of analytical tools that
can record the dynamic range of motion that molecules explore in
solution with extremely high precision. We call this data a
molecules' 4D-structure
and
it can be used to massively simplify any hit identification and lead
optimisation process.
Our unique competitive
advantage is in being able to copy Mother
Nature’s own "blockbuster blueprints": the peptide
hormones and other natural signalling molecules that regulate
the
human body's functions. These ligands have been
optimised over millions of years of evolution to be
highly
potent yet highly target-specific - the perfect profile for a
therapeutic drug.
