Protein crystallography has traditionally been regarded as a resource-intensive, time-consuming technique that, with some notable exceptions, has not made a significant impact on drug discovery. However, inspired by successes in the genome-sequencing initiatives, recent years have seen major changes
Despite theoretical obstacles associated with performing cell-based assays in high-density formats (microplates with at least 384 wells), it is becoming clear that the pharmaceutical industry is now routinely running cell-based tests in these formats. This work is revealing the weakness of establish
Over the past 12 years, drugs have been developed using structure-based drug design relying upon traditional crystallographic methods. Established successes, such as the drugs designed against HIV-1 protease and neuraminidase, demonstrate the utility of a structure-based approach in the drug-discove
