Targeting undruggable carbohydrate recognition sites through focused fragment library design

Carbohydrate–protein interactions are key for cell–cell and host–pathogen recognition, but their hydrophilic nature makes the development of drug-like inhibitors a challenge. Here, screening of fragment libraries identifies metal-binding pharmacophores as novel scaffolds for the inhibition of Ca2+-d...
