Abstract
Cu(I)-catalyzed Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition (CuAAC) is often utilized in medicinal chemistry to make the triazole moiety as it acts as a non-classical bioisostere of the peptide bond. This useful technique can also be applied in the fragment-based assembly of molecular libraries for high-throughput screening. This minireview outlines the application of click-chemistry in the synthesis of enzyme inhibitors with the triazole moiety.
Keywords: Cycloaddition, drug discovery, enzymes, high-throughput screening, organic synthesis.

Chalcogen-modified nucleic acid analogues
Chalcogen-modified nucleosides, nucleotides and oligonucleotides have been of great interest to scientific research for many years. The replacement of oxygen in the nucleobase, sugar or phosphate backbone by chalcogen atoms (sulfur, selenium, tellurium) gives these biomolecules unique properties resulting from their altered physical and chemical properties. The continuing interest in ...read more
