7:04AM Compugen announces positive animal model results for novel peptide predicted to block protein-protein interaction (CGEN) 5.12 : Co announces positive animal model results for CGEN-25068, a novel peptide predicted and selected in silico to block a specific protein-protein interaction known to play an important role in various immune-related disease conditions. CGEN-25068 is one of a number of novel peptides predicted and selected as part of the validation activities for co's Protein-Protein Interaction Blockers Discovery Platform and is the first of these peptides to complete animal model testing. Additional peptides predicted to block targeted interactions in other pathways, primarily cancer-related, are at various stages of validation.
