Q

what can we use in HTS?

A

—-chemical libraries— tested w whole cells or purified enzymes

—-virtual— in silica funneling of large libraries to predict hits ( can be ligand or structure based)

Q

what is levinthal’s paradox?

A

–proteins fold into lowest energy state in seconds

–searching for entire landscape of conformations is not possible in short timeframe

–degrees of freedom increase exponentially with # of residues
