Explains the identification of molecular targets via cellular assays, reporter genes or transgenic models, as well as surveying recent advances in the synthesis, separation and analysis of drugs. A special section is devoted to molecular genetics methods. Appropriate for pharmaceutical chemists, molecular biologists and medical researchers using molecular methods to study drugs and their action.   Content: Cellular assays in drug discovery -- Gene knockout models -- Reporter gene assay systems for the investigation of GPCRs -- From the human genome to new drugs: The potential of orphan GPCRs -- Stereoselective synthesis with the help of recombinant enzymes -- Nucleic acid drugs -- Recent trends in enantioseparation of chiral drugs -- Affinity chromatography -- NMR-based drug discovery -- 13C- and 15N-Isotopic labeling of proteins -- Antibody fragments as crystallization enhancers -- Pharmacogenetics: the effect of inherited henetic variation on drug disposition and drug response -- Pharmacogenomics of bioavailability and elimination -- Toxicogenomics: integration of new molecular biological tools in toxicology.
