Abstract: | Through evolution, nature has provided natural products (NPs) as a rich source of diverse bioactive material. Many drug discovery programs have used nature as an inspiration for the design of NP-like compound classes. These concepts are guided by the prevalidated biological relevance of NPs while going beyond the limitations of nature to produce chemical matter that could have unexpected or novel bioactivities. Herein, we discuss, compare, and highlight recent examples of NP-inspired methods with a focus on the pseudo-NP concept. |
