Abstract

Selection of the appropriate drug target is crucial and furthermore its association with small molecule binding partners is the subject of extensive studies. Drug discovery has evolved from the traditional serendipity to system based approaches of using the three dimensional structures of biological molecules. This chapter provides a brief description about the contribution of large number of proteins structures in drug discovery. This further elucidates the target selection and its role in reducing the time and efforts required for drug development.
