Abstract
Fragment-based lead discovery (FBLD) has proven fruitful during the past two decades for a variety of targets, even challenging protein-protein interaction (PPI) systems. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy plays a vital role, from initial fragment-based screening to lead generation, because of its power to probe the intrinsically weak interactions between targets and low-molecular-weight fragments. Here, we review the NMR FBLD process from initial library construction to lead generation. We describe technical aspects regarding fragment library design, ligand- and protein-observed screening, and protein-ligand structure model generation. For weak binders, the initial hit-to-lead evolution can be guided by structural information retrieved from NMR spectroscopy, including chemical shift perturbation, transferred pseudocontact shifts, and paramagnetic relaxation enhancement. This perspective examines structure-guided optimization from weak fragment screening hits to potent leads for challenging PPI targets.

The application of NMR in fragment-based lead discovery (FBLD) has quickly developed from a sensitive method for the identification of low-affinity binders to an important tool in the hit-to-lead process. NMR can play a constructive role in the process from identifying those fragments with the best...

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...
