Z7 Biotech

Z7 Biotech is a Nottingham-based contract research organisation specialising in early-stage drug discovery and target validation.

It develops bespoke target engagement, signalling and ligand-binding assays for challenging biological targets, including GPCRs, transporters, ion channels and membrane-associated proteins. Its approach is particularly suited to programmes lacking established tool compounds or starting hits.

The company supports pharmaceutical and academic teams investigating novel mechanisms and first-in-class therapeutic targets.
