“This is a new approach to therapeutics… Now we are controlling the access to the target and recognizing that many mutants are functional, but misrouted and can be returned to function, reversing the course of the disease.”
-- P Michael Conn, at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, US (2013)

Current Approaches
Need for easy-to-use HTS tools for discovery of pharmacochaperones
High Content Imaging (IHC, ICC)
FACS Analysis Functional Cell-based Assays
Pros Visualize target localization Detects trafficking to membrane Detect functionality of rescued membrane protein
HTS compatible
Cons Low throughput Difficulty detecting target re-
distribution Need for antibodies, epitope or
fluorescent protein tags Need for specialized, expensive
equipment
Low throughput Need for good antibodies or
addition of epitope tags on extracellular domains
Specialized, expensive equipment
Lack of Assays Difficulty developing & performing assays Indirect measure of pharmacotrafficking Difficulty distinguishing basal levels of
trafficking from induced trafficking Potential for non-specific activity Not all are HTS friendly
