In contrast to single-pharmacophore DNA-encoded libraries, where only one chemical moiety is linked to DNA, dual-pharmacophore DNA-encoded chemical libraries feature the display of two independent small-molecules in close proximity. This, in principle, allows to explore adjacent epitopes on a pharmaceutical target of choice and hence the discovery of simultaneously binding pairs of fragments, by virtue of the chelate effect.
与单药效团DNA编码文库(其中只有一个化学部分与DNA相连)不同,双药效团DNA编码化学文库的特点是在近距离展示两个独立的小分子。原则上,这允许探索所选药物靶点上相邻的表位,从而借助螯合效应发现片段的同时结合对。
