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 molecule compound collections for binding to defined macromolecular targets, thus potentially providing initial, low affinity hits for a fragment-based approach in the drug discovery process. NMR is also applied to interrogate hits obtained by high throughput screening using biochemical assays and by virtual screening methods, for their ability to physically interact with the target receptor. In favorable cases a variety of NMR-based methods can also provide essential information to validate the hit, rank the different hits according to affinity, and to structurally analyze the ligand-target complex, thus providing essential information for structure-based optimization and medicinal chemistry. In this review a comprehensive overview of the large variety of NMR methods to study interactions between small molecule ligands and macromolecular receptors is provided, summarizing the physico-chemical bases of the different receptor- and ligand-observed experiments. The application of these methods for compound library screening and hit validation, with special emphasis on their contribution to fragment-based drug discovery strategies, is illustrated by recent examples selected from the literature and work in my laboratory.

Abstract
Drug discovery is a complex and costly endeavor, where few drugs that reach the clinical testing phase make it to market. High-throughput screening (HTS) is the primary method used by the pharmaceutical industry to identify initial lead compounds. Unfortunately, HTS has a high failure rate and is not particularly efficient at...

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has long been a favourite tool of chemists interested in host-guest systems because it permits access to a wealth of information about the molecular recognition reaction. NMR has evolved dramatically in the last 15 years and, in parallel with the development of NMR methods for the determination of protein...

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...

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...
