Selection of Small Molecules that Bind to and Activate the Insulin Receptor from a DNA-Encoded Library of Natural Products

Summary: Although insulin is a life-saving medicine, administration by daily injection remains problematic. Our goal was to exploit the power of DNA-encoded libraries to identify molecules with insulin-like activity but with the potential to be developed as oral drugs. Our strategy involved using a...
