In the past decade, fragment based drug design (FBDD) has risen as a new and effective approach to identify lead compounds and continues to show great promise in drug discovery. It requires the use of sensitive techniques such as X-ray crystallography to identify hits among low molecular weight fragment compounds that have a weak binding affinity to a drug target. The hit fragments could be then structurally optimized to lead compounds with high affinity and specificity.
Broad Spectrum Fragment Library is a product of choice for FBDD project of any level. The library contains 1,226 high-quality fragments selected to meet top industry requirements. It provides an optimal, diverse set of compounds to be included in your next fragment screen.
