Protein NMR-based screening in drug discovery

Curr Pharm Des. 2006;12(31):3963-72. doi: 10.2174/138161206778743619.

Abstract

Protein NMR as a screening tool in drug discovery has become prominent within the past ten years. Advances in protein manipulation, whether by biological means (labeling) or physical means (NMR), have created a powerful method that is able to observe ligand-target interactions in solution.
