The completed human genome: implications for chemical biology

Christopher P Austin. Curr Opin Chem Biol. 2003 Aug.

Abstract

The recently completed human genome sequence represents an enormous opportunity to understand biology and accelerate the development of new therapeutics. However, it also presents equally large logistical, scientific and paradigmatic challenges to efficiently translate the enormous cache of sequence data into functional information that will be the precursor of new drug development. Small-molecule chemical biology applied on a genomic scale promises to speed this translation to novel therapeutics.
