Emerging high-throughput drug target validation technologies.

Abstract:

:Identifying the right target for drug development is a critical bottleneck in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. The genomics revolution has shifted the problem from a scarcity of targets to a surplus of putative drug targets. As the validity of a target cannot be simply inferred from correlative data, the key is confirmation of the causative role of a gene product in a particular disease. It should therefore be recognized that an effective therapeutic strategy requires an appropriate target validation technology to verify the right target.
