摘要
Rapid expansion in the number of plausible drug targets arising from genomics research has created new pressures for increased efficiency in discovery of high specificity candidate drug compunds. Improved understanding of conserved features among protein structures provides a promising route to achieving this goal. Indirect evidence implies that important similarities are now ripe for elucidation by emerging experimental approaches.
