TimTec LLC, Newark, DE, USA and EnBioTec Co, Ltd, Tokyo, Japan, have entered into a collaboration agreement focusing on discovering unique and novel lead compounds. TimTec will supply targeted compound collections for newly developed assay technology sharing its experience in synthetic organic chemistry. Enbiotech recently expended into drug discovery area having successfully introduced Receptor Cofactor Assay System (RCAS). The system allows evaluating the interaction between nuclear hormone receptors and co-factor in the presence of a compound. RCAS is cell-free and highly sensitive being able to distinguish agonist or antagonist interactions. EnBioTec and TimTec plan on a series of functional assays to co-develop nuclear receptor based lead compounds for drug discovery.
EnBioTec, Tokyo, Japan, emerged as an environmental biotechnology company specializing in R&D and product development for environmental diagnostics, contamination clean-up, and developing of environmentally-friendly materials. EnBioTec initiated Nuclear Receptor based Drug Discovery Consortium, a network of government, academic, and for-profit organizations, to combine resources to foster drug discovery.
