Automation in the high-throughput selection of random combinatorial libraries--different approaches for select applications.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Automation in combination with high throughput screening methods has revolutionised molecular biology in the last two decades. Today, many combinatorial libraries as well as several systems for automation are available. Depending on scope, budget and time, a different combination of library and experimental handling might be most effective. In this review we will discuss several concepts of combinatorial libraries and provide information as what to expect from these depending on the given context.

Assessment of "drug-likeness" of a small library of natural products using chemoinformatics
Even though natural products has an excellent record as a source for new drugs, the advent of ultrahigh-throughput screening and large-scale combinatorial synthetic methods, has caused a decline in the use of natural products research in the pharmaceutical industry. This is due to the efficiency in generating and screening a high number of synthetic combinatorial compounds; whereas traditional ...

متن کاملLibrary selection approaches to engineering enhanced retroviral and lentiviral vectors.
Retroviral and lentiviral based gene delivery vectors have been used in numerous pre-clinical studies and clinical trials due to their advantages, including stable and prolonged expression of therapeutic transgenes and minimal immune responses against the vector. Despite such advantages, however, retroviral vectors also have several limitations for gene therapy applications. For example, they c...
متن کاملWhole cell strategies based on lux genes for high throughput applications toward new antimicrobials.
The discovery/development of novel drug candidates has witnessed dramatic changes over the last two decades. Old methods to identify lead compounds are not suitable to screen wide libraries generated by combinatorial chemistry techniques. High throughput screening (HTS) has become irreplaceable and hundreds of different approaches have been described. Assays based on purified components are fla...
متن کاملRational principles of compound selection for combinatorial library design.
It is practically impossible in a short period of time to synthesize and test all compounds in any large exhaustive chemical library. We discuss rational approaches to selecting representative subsets of virtual libraries that help direct experimental synthetic efforts for both targeted and diverse library design. For targeted library design, we consider principles based on the similarity to le...
