Novel encoding methods for DNA-templated chemical libraries

Curr Opin Chem Biol. 2015 Jun:26:25-33. doi: 10.1016/j.cbpa.2015.01.004. Epub 2015 Jan 28.

Abstract

Among various types of DNA-encoded chemical libraries, DNA-templated library takes advantage of the sequence-specificity of DNA hybridization, enabling not only highly effective DNA-templated chemical reactions, but also high fidelity in library encoding. This brief review summarizes recent advances that have been made on the encoding strategies for DNA-templated libraries, and it also highlights their respective advantages and limitations for the preparation of DNA-encoded libraries.
