Hello Dr.GPCR readers! This is Lucía from the Celtarys Research chemistry team.  For our very first post in this ecosystem, we wanted to highlight a huge part of our work at Celtarys Research: conjugation strategies. You can check what we do here on our website!   Conjugation strategies for small molecules are very versatile! In this case, we would like to focus on the synthesis of fluorescent probes. Traditionally, the most reliable and commonly used method is the amide coupling  using acid and amine .[ 1 ] This method has several advantages: it is usually very robust, good yields, reagents are found in most chem labs (like HATU, HoBT, EDCI etc.). Still, there are some downsides, such as the byproduct obtained by the O-acylisourea rearranging intramolecularly into the N-acylurea.[ 2]     NHS ester amide coupling  is the most suited for bioconjugation with proteins, DNA, etc, thanks to its reaction with the free amino groups present in these biomolecules. NHS esters are not very stable even in aqueous environment but they only need a slightly basic medium for the reaction to work, so they have to be used quickly and stored correctly. Not only do they work in aqueous medium, but also in aprotic solvents like DMF, where you will need to add a base such as TEA. [ 3]     Maleimide  conjugation with thiols  present Cys residues. This conjugation is very useful for tagging biomolecules and can also be used to develop fluorescent probes with small molecules. Its biggest advantage is the presence of Cys residues in proteins, although sometimes S-S bridge reduction is needed, and how quickly the reaction takes place. The biggest detractor? It’s reversible under non-reducing conditions. [ 4]     Other strategies include click chemistry,  more specifically, the CuAAC (Cu(I)- catalyzed azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition), which is a very robust conjugation strategy to obtain linkers with a rigid moiety (the triazol). But it also presents some issues, such as synthesizing the as the presence of the copper catalyst, which has to be removed completely, otherwise it can quelate biomolecules or induce cell toxicity. [ 5]     At Celtarys’ we have our conjugation strategy - our own proprietary technology- which bypasses some of the issues seen before. There’s no need for any catalysts; all reagents will be incorporated in the structure of the final compound. The reaction is convergent, efficient and robust. Thanks to the unique linker structure we obtain, which can be divided into three differentiated parts, we can modify the rigidity of the linker as well as the physicochemical properties of the whole probe. This property comes from the wide chemical space this reaction can access – we can substitute one reagent and make an unprecedented combination, also using commercially available precursor, which improves the performance of the probes.  It also poses some disadvantages – just like acid-amine amide coupling, some byproducts are obtained during the synthesis. However, these are usually easily removable. Besides, it’s an eco-friendlier method, which always helps future-proof our probes!  References   (1) Brown, D. G.; Boström, J.

Is Your GPCR Program Slowing Down—Even With Good Data? You’re not alone. Most teams don’t stall because the science is weak. They stall because the data becomes a mess. I call it the Lego Bucket Problem : You’ve got CRO output, internal assay data, maybe even some promising signals. But there’s no blueprint. No structure. No clear path to your next milestone. Meetings drag. Decisions stall. And momentum quietly dies. The Hidden Cost of Good Science Without Systems I’ve seen this pattern again and again—across academia, biotech, and through close work with dozens of teams inside the Dr. GPCR Ecosystem. Strong science. Promising data. But no systems to turn it into momentum. Data arrives too fast and too fragmented CROs deliver output without clear integration Teams chase the wrong assays, too late to pivot Milestones slip—and nobody realizes until it’s too late Failing fast? Not possible when nothing’s built to surface the right  insights early. That’s Why I Built Yamina’s Consulting Corner This is not “advising.” This is embedded consulting for biotech and VC teams who need to move fast —without compromising scientific integrity. Unlike traditional advisors, I'm not just observing; I'm part of your team . This allows me to experience your challenges firsthand, identify roadblocks faster , and i mplement solutions from within , ensuring genuine buy-in and lasting momentum. Here’s what I bring: Biology-First Strategy I’ve designed GPCR assays, led collaborations across research environments, and translated complex data into action. I know how to ask the right scientific questions—and when to shift from analysis to execution. Systems That Drive Execution No more disconnected slides and 6-week meeting cycles. I install simple tools that surface insights, align your team, and keep momentum moving. True Embedded Partnership I review CRO scopes, flag risks early, and sit in on your strategic calls. I’m not watching from the sidelines—I’m driving with you. Real-Time Global Insight As founder of Dr. GPCR, I’m connected to 1,300+ scientists and decision-makers worldwide. That network gives me a constant pulse on what’s working—and what’s next. Who I Work With ✅ Biotech Teams  – Especially those lacking in-house GPCR leads or overwhelmed by CRO data chaos. ✅ Venture Capital Firms  – Looking to accelerate, troubleshoot, or validate GPCR assets in their portfolio. ✅ Contract Research Organizations (CROs)  – Wanting to better align with biotech clients and deliver real  insight, not just data. My Consulting Philosophy Every successful GPCR program is a blend of scientific excellence  and operational precision . One without the other will quietly kill your momentum. My work is rooted in: ✔️ Scientific Integrity ✔️ Operational Discipline ✔️ Collaborative Partnership Let’s Get Your GPCR Program Moving Again Whether you’re building from scratch or recovering from a stall, I’ll help you move faster—with fewer blind spots, tighter execution, and a clear line of sight to your next key decision. 🚀 Book your free 30-minute strategy call Let’s unlock the momentum your GPCR program needs. 👉 https://calendly.com/drgpcr/yamina-corner Or explore how we can work together: 👉 Yamina.org 🔑 Key Takeaways ✅ Even strong science stalls without operational structure ✅ Scattered data = missed insights = wasted time ✅ You can’t fail fas t if you can’t see the problems early ✅ Most teams don’t need more data— they need clarity ✅ Yamina’s Corner helps teams move from data chaos to decisive action ✅ This is hands-on support —not passive advising p.s: Still unsure if this is the right fit?
