Development and virtual screening of target libraries

J Physiol Paris. 2006 Mar-May;99(2-3):232-44. doi: 10.1016/j.jphysparis.2005.12.084. Epub 2006 Feb 3.

Abstract

The concomitant development of in silico screening technologies and of three-dimensional information on therapeutically relevant macromolecular targets makes it possible to navigate in the structural proteome and to identify targets fulfilling user-defined queries. This review illustrates some in-house recent advances in the development of target libraries and how they can be browsed to unravel chemogenomic information.
