Overview

Fragment screening offers an alternative to traditional screening for, discovering new leads in drug discovery programs. This paper describes a, fragment screening methodology based on high throughput X-ray, crystallography. The method is illustrated against five proteins (p38 MAP, kinase, CDK2, thrombin, ribonuclease A, and PTP1B). The fragments, identified have weak potency (>100 microM) but are efficient binders, relative to their size and may therefore represent suitable starting, points for evolution to good quality lead compounds. The examples, illustrate that a range of molecular interactions (i.e., lipophilic, charge-charge, neutral hydrogen bonds) can drive fragment binding and also, that fragments can induce protein movement. We believe that the method has, great potential ... [(full description)]
