Chemical genomics: Linking biologically active compounds to cellular pathways and targets
FY 2009-10
Summary
We are applying yeast functional genomics methodology towards the analysis of an extensive collection of natural products, which are sophisticated chemical compounds produced by living organisms, with the goal of linking these compounds to their cellular targets. Natural products are often selected for specific biological activity and, therefore, may be of therapeutic value.
