Choi J, Noguchi Y, Alburger J, Bayle S, Chung E, Grant W, et al.
J Med Chem . 2023 May; 66(11):7162-7178. PMID: 37204207
Specific inhibition of a single kinase isoform is a challenging task due to the highly conserved nature of ATP-binding sites. Casein kinase 1 (CK1) δ and ε share 97% sequence...

Nieto A, Hara M, Quereda V, Grant W, Saunders V, Xiao K, et al.
Cell Death Differ . 2019 Sep; 27(4):1200-1213. PMID: 31506606
Cellular DNA is constantly under threat from internal and external insults, consequently multiple pathways have evolved to maintain chromosomal fidelity. Our previous studies revealed that chronic stress, mediated by continuous...

Monastyrskyi A, Bayle S, Quereda V, Grant W, Cameron M, Duckett D, et al.
Bioorg Med Chem Lett . 2017 Dec; 28(3):400-404. PMID: 29277458
The development of a new series of apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) inhibitors is described. Starting from purine, pyrimidine and quinazoline scaffolds identified by high throughput screening, we used tools...

Rosenberg L, Lafitte M, Quereda V, Grant W, Chen W, Bibian M, et al.
Sci Transl Med . 2015 Dec; 7(318):318ra202. PMID: 26676609
Identification of specific drivers of human cancer is required to instruct the development of targeted therapeutics. We demonstrate that CSNK1D is amplified and/or overexpressed in human breast tumors and that...
