A METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING A SYNTHETIC MOLECULE HAVING AFFINITY TOWARDS A TARGET

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for identifying a synthetic molecule having affinity towards a target. The method includes the steps of providing a library of bifunctional complexes, wherein each complex of the library comprises a synthetic molecule attached to an identifier, which codes for said molecule; subjecting, under binding conditions, the library of bifunctional complexes to a target; removing the non-binding members of the library; separating the identifiers of complexes comprising synthetic molecules having affinity towards the target, and decoding the identifiers to establish the identity of the molecule.
