| Abstract: | Chemical genomics is a newly emerged and
rapidly progressing field in biology, where small chemical molecules bind
specifically and reversibly to protein(s) to modulate their function(s), leading
to the delineation and subsequent unravelling of biological processes. This
approach overcomes problems like lethality and redundancy of classical
genetics. Armed with the powerful techniques of combinatorial synthesis,
high-throughput screening and target discovery chemical genomics expands its
scope to diverse areas in biology. The well-established genetic system of Arabidopsis model allows chemical
genomics to enter into the realm of plant biology exploring signaling pathways
of growth regulators, endomembrane signaling cascades, plant defense mechanisms
and many more events. |
