Expert Opin Drug Discov. 2013 Mar 12;
Authors: Hiroaki H
Abstract
Introduction: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) applications in drug discovery are classified into two categories: ligand-based methods and protein-based methods. The latter is based on the observation of the (1)H-(15)N HSQC spectra of a protein with and without lead compounds. However, in order to take this...
