Historically, the department has had several overlapping missions and goals- service teaching for science and engineering majors, professional training of chemistry majors and graduate students and ambitions for a nationally-recognized research program. CCB teaches ~3% of the student credit hours taught on main campus, and at one point had over 20 tenured and tenure track faculty and ~80 graduate students.

  • Design, Synthesis and Evaluation of Novel Small Molecule Inhibitors of the Histone Methyltransferase DOT1L and the Ubiquitination Facilitator Keap1
    Design, Synthesis and Evaluation of Novel Small Molecule Inhibitors of the Histone Methyltransferase DOT1L and Ubiquitination Facilitator Keap1 Sophie S. Spurr A thesis submitted for the award of doctor of philosophy School of Pharmacy, University College London 2017 Declaration I, Sophie S. Spurr confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Sophie S. Spurr i Abstract This thesis details the design, synthesis and evaluation of novel small molecule inhibitors of the histone methyltransferase DOT1L and the ubiquitination facilitator Keap1. The thesis is in two parts as outlined below. Part 1: The first part of this thesis details efforts towards identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of DOT1L, a histone methyltransferase which has been implicated in the development and proliferation of mixed lineage leukaemias (MLL). This work aims to optimise the drug-like properties of published DOT1L inhibitors while retaining potency, through further exploration of the nucleobase template. Structure-activity relationships (SARs) identified polar substituents and small heterocycles as favourable replacements for the halogen in 5-ITC, a small molecule inhibitor of DOT1L. Alternative nucleobase templates also demonstrated comparable DOT1L inhibition. To demonstrate proof of concept, a polar nitrile substituent was translated into the inhibitor Br-SAH as a direct replacement of the bromide. Activity was retained and a crystal structure obtained which demonstrated the nitrile occupied the same hydrophobic pocket. This work also demonstrated the use of a nitrile as a non-traditional replacement for heavy halogen atoms. Part 2: The second part of this thesis details identification of novel inhibitors of the Keap1-Nrf2 protein-protein interactions (PPI) using an approach based on kinetic target-guided synthesis (kTGS).

    World Premier International Research Center Initiative (WPI) FY 2018 WPI Project Progress Report Host Institution Kanazawa University Host Institution Head Koetsu Yamazaki Research Center Nano Life Science Institute (NanoLSI) Center Director Takeshi Fukuma Common instructions: * Unless otherwise specified, prepare this report based on the current (31 March 2019) situation of your WPI center. * So as to execute this fiscal year’s follow-up review on the “last” center project plan, prepare this report based on it. * Use yen (¥) when writing monetary amounts in the report. If an exchange rate is used to calculate the yen amount, give the rate. * Prepare this report within 10-20 pages (excluding the appendices, and including Summary of State of WPI Center Project Progress (within 2 pages)). Summary of State of WPI Center Project Progress (write within 2 pages) 1. Research Progress In FY2017, we set up various interdisciplinary research subjects and summarized them into three major projects: (1) development of novel nanoprobe technologies, (2) nano-level understanding of cellular functions and cancer, and (3) establishment of “Nanoprobe Life Science.” The efforts to achieve these goals were initiated in FY2017 and have been continued through FY2018. As for (1) and (2), here we mainly report the current status of the long-term and interdisciplinary projects initiated after the launch of NanoLSI. As for (3), we present selected achievements that can highlight the progress of the fusion of the four major research fields: nanometrology, life science, supramolecular chemistry and computational science, leading to the establishment of Nanoprobe Life Science. (1) Development of novel nanoprobe technologies - Scanning probe microscopists continued to explore various designs and fabrication methods of nanoprobes suitable for novel live cell imaging methods.

  • 2016 Annual Report
    Laboratory Directed Research and Development 2016 ANNUAL REPORT SANDIA NATIONAL LABORATORIES 2016 LDRD ANNUAL REPORT SANDIA NATIONAL LABORATORIES 2016 LDRD ANNUAL REPORT LABORATORY DIRECTED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT INNOVATION FOR OUR NATION FROM THE CHIEF TECHNOLOGY OFFICER Over the past quarter century, Sandia’s LDRD program has initiated innovations that have contributed to national security, ranging from ensuring the safety, security and reliability of the US nuclear stockpile to securing a sustainable energy future. In addition to enabling Sandia to create and sustain an environment of creativity and innovation, the LDRD program is significant because it expands Sandia’s science and technology capabilities and contributes to our long-term vitality, enables Sandia to recruit and retain highly talented scientists and engineers, and has led to an impressive array of technological advances, awards, patents, and publications. Each year, researchers across Sandia submit proposals for creative, forward-looking R&D projects that have the potential to greatly benefit our national security mission. NNSA guidance—as well as Sandia’s internal LDRD processes—provides the framework for review and selection of Sandia’s LDRD portfolio. Evaluation criteria include: alignment with Sandia strategy and potential national security impact; technical merit and feasibility; and leading edge, high risk R&D character. In a highly competitive FY2016 process, 689 short idea proposals were submitted. Of those, 187 were invited to submit full proposals, of which 111 were funded. When added to ongoing projects and late-start projects (which are also reviewed), 366 projects were active in FY 2016. In this report, you will find descriptions of each of our active projects, as well as more information on Sandia’s LDRD program.
