Abstract
NMR spectroscopy has become a powerful and versatile tool in pharmaceutical research, particularly for studies of protein-ligand interactions. During the past few years, new NMR screening techniques have been developed. Some of them aim to increase sensitivity, which translates directly into higher throughput and/or decrease of protein consumption. Other approaches introduce completely new screening concepts and yield qualitatively different information. A brief description of some new NMR screening techniques applied to drug discovery is given in this review, and their principal advantages and drawbacks are discussed. These methods have made an appreciable contribution to drug design, leading to the discovery of a large number of high affinity ligands for biologically relevant protein targets.:

Diversity and robustness of NMR based screening methods make these techniques highly attractive as tools for drug discovery. Although not all screening techniques discussed here may be applicable to any given target, there is however a good chance that at least one of the described methods will prove productive in finding several medium affinity ligands. A comparison of each of...

In the half-century since its discovery, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has become the single most powerful form of spectroscopy in both chemistry and structural biology. The dramatic technical advances over the past 10-15 years, which continue apace, have markedly increased the range of applications for NMR in the study of protein-ligand interactions. These form the basis for its most...

Over the past three decades nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been developed into a mature technique for the characterization of interactions of small molecule ligands with their corresponding protein and nucleic acid receptors. In fact, a significant number of industrial and academic laboratories employ NMR for screening small...

NMR methods in drug discovery have traditionally been used to obtain structural information for drug targets or target-ligand complexes. Recently, it has been shown that NMR may be used as an alternative approach for identification of ligands that bind to protein drug targets, shifting the emphasis...
