Abstract

Provided are novel types of hybrid cyclic libraries that contain a known protein binding domain of a natural product. Also provided are synthetic methods to make such libraries and methods for the deconvolution of hits using partially split-pooled library compounds. Such methods are applicable for use with the entire human proteome to screen such libraries that bind and for the identification of hits.
