(Human Alpha-lactalbumin Made LEthal to Tumor cells)
HAMLET is a tumoricidal protein-lipid complex, formed by two GRAS (generally regarded as safe) molecules present in human milk. The novel therapeutic entity HAMLET is formed when the human milk protein alpha-lactalbumin undergoes a conformational change and binds to oleic acid.

Advanced technologies allow us to see molecules, measure them from every angle, and understand their deepest secrets. Using such techniques, we were able to identify the structure of HAMLET and especially the domains that are responsible for the killing effect. This is how we identified the Alpha1 peptide, which forms a lipid complex and kills tumor cells. This smaller part of the HAMLET molecule can be produced synthetically, and used as a drug candidate.
