- Name the three basic classes of drug targets in medicinal chemistry and indicate, which are the most/least important as targets for biologics? I don't sure if I answer these questions correctly. Hope someone can give me confirmation and explain to me how enzymes will be affected by bioloigcs? My answer so far: The three common classes of drug targets are; receptors, nucleic acid, and enzymes. As a target for biologics, the least important will be a nucleic acid, and the most important will be receptor and second enzymes. Biologic drugs such as monoclonal antibodies will bind to the antigens, which are overexpressed receptor that need to be deactivated. In this case, the monoclonal antibodies will act as an antagonist and block the ligand from binding to the antigens, which are extensively presented in cancer cells. In addition, it can also affect enzymes by.......?arrow_forwardWhen culturing microorganisms, you must ensure you work to prevent unwanted contamination.
