Founded in 2015 as a spin-out from the Paul Scherrer Institute (ETH), leadXpro is located in Switzerland, between the pharma and science hubs of Basel and Zürich. leadXpro is revolutionising drug discovery for membrane proteins, targeting GPCRs, ion channels and transporters. These proteins represent more than half of clinically-used current drug targets, but remain the most difficult targets for structure-based drug design, due to the challenges in solving their atomic structures in complex with drug candidates.
leadXpro combines state-of-the-art methods for membrane protein science, advanced biophysical methods to characterize drug candidate interactions and pioneering technologies in structural biology, including cryo-EM and time-resolved X-ray crystallography at SwissFEL.
