Discovery of novel PTP1b inhibitors

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2004 Jan 19;14(2):389-91. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2003.10.058.

Abstract

A small library of 19 compounds was designed based on unique structural features of PTP1b. Utilizing electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) to provide binding information about complexes of enzyme and small molecule ligands, two classes of lead compounds were discovered.
