Research interests
Research in our group has a general focus on Structure-based Design and Synthesis of kinase inhibitors , epigenetic modulators and phosphodiesterase inhibitors. We have particular expertise in Peptides and Peptidomimetics.
Our major current programs deal with
- isoform selective inhibition of the PI3 kinase family
- new chemotypes as PDE inhibitors and PDE inhibitors against parasitic diseases
- polymyxin-based antibacterial agents
- fluorescent labels for peptides
- modulators of epigenetic proteins
