The design, annotation, and application of a kinase-targeted library

Abstract

We present here a workflow for designing a kinase-targeted library (KTL) with the goal of capturing known kinase inhibitor chemical space. We validated our design retrospectively using recent, high-throughput screening data and found significant enrichment of kinase inhibitor hits while retaining majority of the active kinase inhibitor series. To further assist kinase projects in triaging KTL screen hits, we also developed a methodology to systematically annotate known kinase inhibitors in the KTL with regard to their binding modes.
