Transcription Factors annotated library
• Transcription Factors are proteins that regulate gene reading from DNA sequences
• A direct modulation of a Transcription Factor activity by small molecules can be achieved through
- Mimetics of peptide motifs that bind at either activation domain (AD) or signal-sensing domain (SSD)
- Mimetics of DNA motifs that bind at a DNA-binding domain (DBD)
• Transcription Factors are promising therapeutic targets for
- Oncology, e.g. immunological response modulators, tumor suppressors, oncogenes regulators
- Metabolic diseases, e.g. diabetes, osteoporosis, high-density lipoproteins (HDL) regulation
- Cardiovascular system, e.g. atherosclerosis, thrombosis
- Inflammation, e.g. autoimmune diseases, immune response suppression
