Title:
Developing High-throughput, Quantitative Platforms to Identify the Targets of Small Molecules
Abstract:
Current target identification approaches are unable to reliably detect interactions between chemically unoptimized small molecules and protein targets. These methods are generally limited by
time-consuming chemical modifications and high background signals. To address these issues, I have developed a method to rapidly and generally append chemical moieties to small molecules and a proteomics workflow that uses covalent enrichment to detect low abundance small molecule-protein interactions.
