Introduction What We Can Offer Workflow Why Creative Biolabs Customer Reviews FAQs Related Services Contact Us
Creative Biolabs helps you accelerate drug discovery and confidently advance your lead compounds by providing comprehensive, validated screening and selectivity platforms. Our deliverables go beyond raw numbers, providing a complete profile of your compounds' activity, specificity, and binding kinetics, which are critical for de-risking your pipeline. Through advanced enzymatic, cell-based, and kinetic assays, we help you overcome cross-reactivity issues with homologous proteases like DPP4 and POP.
The Structure, Function, and Expression of FAP
FAP, a serine protease, is an attractive therapeutic target in oncology and fibrosis due to its high expression in disease states and minimal presence in healthy tissues. This unique expression profile makes it a compelling candidate for developing highly specific therapies that can target diseased cells while sparing healthy ones, thereby minimizing side effects. However, developing such therapies is complex, as FAP's structural similarity to other proteases, particularly Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 (DPP4) and Prolyl Oligopeptidase (POP), presents a significant challenge.
