Screening of a virtual mirror-image library of natural products

Chem Commun (Camb). 2016 Jun 8;52(49):7653-6. doi: 10.1039/c6cc03114e.

Abstract

We established a facile access to an unexplored mirror-image library of chiral natural product derivatives using d-protein technology. In this process, two chemical syntheses of mirror-image substances including a target protein and hit compound(s) allow the lead discovery from a virtual mirror-image library without the synthesis of numerous mirror-image compounds.
