Abstract
Described is a computer‐assisted rational design of a DNA–bis‐intercalator peptide library. The peptide library of 250 members was prepared and the most powerful binder identified. A value of the binding constant is almost two orders of magnitude higher than that of starting building block‐9‐aminoacridine. The binder affinity found toward calf thymus DNA is 30‐fold of that of human prion peptide 106–126. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Biopolymers (Pept Sci) 84: 400–407, 2006

We describe a new computational approach, called Focus-2D, to the rational design of targeted combinatorial chemical libraries. This approach is based on the hypothesis that structurally similar compounds display similar biological activity profiles. Building blocks that are used in a combinatorial
## Abstract 1‐Phenyl‐4‐piperazinyl‐carbonyl‐substituted nitrogen‐containing heterocycles were discovered at Zentaris as a new class of potent, synthetic, small molecule tubulin inhibitors with strong antiproliferative activity. The lead structure of this class, **D‐24203**, proved to be a potent in
The structure of the packaged double-stranded DNA genome of bacteriophage T7 was compared to that of unpackaged T7 DNA using digital difference Raman spectroscopy. Spectral data were obtained at 25 degrees C from native T7 virus (100 mg/mL), empty T7 capsids (50 mg/mL), and purified T7 DNA (40 mg/mL
