SUMMARY:Webinar: DNA-Encoded Chemistry
DESCRIPTION:Genetically-encoded library (GEL) technologies cannot natively encode post-translational modifications\, while DNA-encoded libraries (DEL) demand complex synthesis. This talk presents chemical post-translational modification (cPTM) to unlock billion-scale molecular diversity. Additionally\, learn how Liquid Molecular Array (LiMA) uses DNA-barcoded phage display to enable in vivo organ- and cell-level tracking via NGS.\n\nSpeaker: Dr. Ratmir Derda\nProfessor\nFaculty of Science – Chemistry\nUniversity of Alberta
