Abstract

Creating first-in-class medications to treat human disease is an extremely challenging endeavor. While genome sequencing and genetics are making direct connections between mutations and human disorders at an unprecedented rate, matching molecular targets with a suitable therapeutic indication must ultimately be achieved by pharmacology. Here, we discuss how the integration of chemical proteomic platforms (such as activity-based protein profiling) into the earliest stages of the drug discovery process has the potential to greatly expand the scope of proteins that can be pharmacologically evaluated in living systems, and, through doing so, promote the identification and prioritization of new therapeutic targets.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Some analytical techniques (click chemistry, activity probes, and mass spectrometry-based proteomics) to evaluate binding activity and selectivity in vitro and in vivo are only available for covalent compounds.

    “In addition, some analytical techniques such as click chemistry, activity probes, and mass spectrometry-based proteomics to evaluate binding activity and selectivity in vitro and in vivo are only available for covalent compounds [120–124].”
  • Chemoproteomic platforms enable rapid target identification and selectivity profiling of covalent ligands.

    “This ‘electrophile-first’ approach is partly facilitated by the development of chemoproteomic platforms that enable rapid target identification and selectivity profiling of covalent ligands14–18.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
