New Drug Protein Targets

These drug targets relate to the particular protein in the body which is key to the drug's activity.
The drug binding to a particular protein may act to inhibit or activate said protein. However, in the case of protein replacement or gene therapies, or certain vaccines, the drug or its expression product will be the target. Many of these targets may have a Target Family assigned to them; this is a way of grouping together protein targets by their activity, such as enzyme types (including protein kinases), receptors, cytokines, ion channels, peptide hormones, or transporters.
