...A very common approach is to start pharmacological testing with crude plant extracts and subsequently to isolate and characterize the constituents responsible for the activity of the extract (Koehn and Carter, 2005)....

..., chiral centers, aromatic rings, complex ring systems, degree of molecule saturation, and number and ratio of heteroatoms) have been shown to be highly relevant to drug discovery efforts (Lee and Schneider, 2001; Feher and Schmidt, 2003; Clardy and Walsh, 2004; Piggott and Karuso, 2004; Koehn and Carter, 2005)....

...Because drug discovery from medicinal plants has traditionally been so time-consuming, faster and better methodologies for plant collection, bioassay screening, compound isolation, and compound development must be employed (Do and Bernard, 2004; Koehn and Carter, 2005)....

...Several macrocyclic drugs can be described as having a 'modulator' domain, a sub-region in which the details of molecular structure can be altered without affecting target affinity, but which completes the macrocyclic architecture and positions functional groups for binding (for example the 'spacer' region of the bryostatins...
