The molecular genetics of neurofibromatosis type 1 and its future prospective

Abstract   Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant tumor predisposition syndrome that is caused through loss of function mutations of a tumor suppressor gene termed neurofibromin 1. Therapeutic decisions are presently restricted for NF1-associated tumors, where treatment is often restricted to thorough surgical resection with perfect margins. In this review article, the multif...

Medicinal chemistry, metabolic profiling and drug target discovery: a role for metabolic profiling in reverse pharmacology and chemical genetics.

Comprehensive analysis of the metabolome can contribute to mechanism of action studies for small molecules discovered in phenotypic screens. Examples are presented in this overview of the rapidly developing field of "metabolic profiling." These examples include the use of NMR in gene function analysis, GC-based studies on the identification of metabolic pathways affected by PPAR-gamma agonists,...

High-confidence mapping of chemical compounds and protein complexes reveals novel aspects of chemical stress response in yeast.

Chemical genetics in yeast has shown great potential for clarifying the pharmacology of various drugs. Investigating these results from a systems perspective has uncovered many facets of natural chemical tolerance, but many cellular interactions of chemicals still remain poorly understood. To uncover previously overlooked players in resistance to chemical stress we integrated several independen...
