Abstract
Method for identifying a drug lead compound that inhibits binding of target bioogical molecules (TBM) by contacting TBM with members of a library of candidate cross-linked target binding fragments (CXBF), each CXBF having at least two candidate target bindig fragments (CTBF), which are inhibitors of binding, linked to a cross-linker, and selecting CXBF that inhibit the binding of the TBM to a greater extent than either of the individual CTBF linked to said cross-linker, wherein the library of CXBF is produced by: (a) screening a population of CTBF capable of being chemically cross-linked by a cross-linker to identify a subpopulation of the CTBF that inhibit binding of the TBM; and (b) chemically cross-linking members of the subpopulation of CTBF or structurally related analogs thereof with a cross-linker to provide a library of CXBF, wherein at least one linking group comprises an oxime ether linking group.
