Quantifying biogenic bias in screening libraries.

Jérôme Hert | John J Irwin | Christian Laggner | Michael J Keiser | Brian K Shoichet
Nature chemical biology | 2009

In lead discovery, libraries of 10(6) molecules are screened for biological activity. Given the over 10(60) drug-like molecules thought possible, such screens might never succeed. The fact that they do, even occasionally, implies a biased selection of library molecules. We have developed a method to quantify the bias in screening libraries toward biogenic molecules. With this approach, we consider what is missing from screening libraries and how they can be optimized.

Pipeline Pilot (tool)

RRID:SCR_014917

Software used to automate the process of accessing, analyzing and reporting scientific data. This software can be used by a person with little or no software development experience can create scientific protocols that can be executed through a variety of interfaces including: BIOVIA Web Port, other BIOVIA solutions such as BIOVIA Electronic Lab Notebook, Isentris, Chemical Registration and third-party applications such as Microsoft SharePoint. The protocols aggregate and provide immediate access to volumes of research data, they automate the scientific analysis of data and allow researchers to explore, visualize and report results.
