Abstract

While protein-protein interfaces have promised a range of benefits over conventional sites in drug discovery, they present unique challenges. Here we describe recent developments that facilitate many aspects of the drug discovery process – including characterization and classification of interfaces, identifying druggable sites and strategies for inhibitor development.
