PPI Status definition

PPI Status means for a particular Sanofi Target that the Active Compound(s) for such Sanofi Target are expected to (a) inhibit the binding of a peptidic ligand to the applicable Sanofi Target by either an allosteric or orthostatic mechanism, or (b) promote binding of the applicable Sanofi Target to another protein target, resulting in reduced function. By way of example but without limitation, an example of clause (b) above would be an Active Compound that bound to an E3 ligase with a consequent ubiquination of the protein target and reduced half-life.
