Protein targeting with small molecules: chemical biology techniques and applications

One of chemical biologys most important purposes is to search and discover small molecules that can control protein function, an important aspect in designing and developing novel drugs and therapeutics. This book introduces the technologies and methods to detect the interactions of small molecules and proteins. The book provides information to help chemical biologists and medicinal chemistry researchers discover small molecules that bind to proteins and also describes recent applications using small molecules as probes to investigate biology. The chapters cover such important techniques as chemical genetics, targetprofiling, chemical inhibition, and structure-based targeting.
