Frame the target before identity details

Structured disease, protein, and project context should read before the lower-level identity rail.

As of 2026-09-13

Protective antigen shows approved-linked disease relevance led by anthrax infection. 1 more disease program remain visible in the same review block. 5 linked drugs keep the current disease frame grounded. Protein identity stays anchored to UniProt P13423. Start with anthrax infection, then reuse UniProt P13423 as the stable protein anchor across project notes and exports.

Disease program
anthrax infection

Protective antigen shows approved-linked disease relevance led by anthrax infection. 1 more disease program remain visible in the same review block. 5 linked drugs remain visible in the same block.

Start review with anthrax infection because it currently carries approved-linked support. Linked drugs include AVP-21D9, BACILLUS ANTHRACIS PROTECTIVE ANTIGEN, ADSORBED, MDX-1303, OBILTOXAXIMAB. This disease block keeps the Open Targets-ready contract explicit while current evidence comes from ChEMBL mechanism and indication mappings.
