‘Small molecules for Chemical Biology’ topical collection

We’re excited to share with you our new topical collection on “Small molecules for chemical biology” for RSC Chemical Biology, highlighting the excellent work published so far in the journal in this exciting area of research.

The use of small molecules in chemical biology encompasses a wide range of multidisciplinary research, including the use of chemical tools as probes for imaging and targetidentification, small molecule inhibitors of protein-protein interactions, signal inhibition and the assessment of ligand engagement among others.
