Postgenomic chemistry (IUPAC Technical Report)
Résumé
Numerous areas of chemistry can benefit from the ongoing genomic rev- olution. Here, we discuss and highlight trends in chemistry in the postgenomic era. The areas of interest include combinatorial approaches in organic chemistry; de- sign and analysis of proteins containing unnatural amino acids; trace element-con- taining proteins; design and characterization of new enzyme types; applications of postgenomic chemistry in drug design; identification of lipid networks and global characterization of lipid molecular species; development of recombinant and self- proliferating polymers; and applications in food chemistry and bioanalytical chemistry based on new nanoanalytical systems and novel recognition elements.
