Abstract

Chemical probes are urgently needed to functionally annotate hitherto untargeted kinases and stimulate new drug discovery efforts to address unmet medical need. The size of the human kinome combined with the high cost associated with probe generation severely limits access to new probes. We propose a large scale public-private partnership as a new approach which offers economies of scale, minimized redundancy, and sharing of risk and cost.
