Multiplexed Target Profiling with Integrated Chemical Genomics and Chemical Proteomics.

Target identification is crucial for elucidating the mechanisms of bioactive molecules in drug discovery. However, traditional methods assess compounds individually, making it challenging to efficiently examine multiple compounds in parallel, especially for structurally diverse compounds. This study reports a novel strategy called chemical genomics-facilitated chemical proteomics (CGCP) for multiplexing the target identification of bioactive small molecules.
