The PhytoLogix Discovery Process relies upon multiple standardized extraction and fractionation protocols that allow the generation of diversified extracts and fractionation libraries in a high throughput format at a reasonable cost. Each biomass was extracted with a medium polarity solvent combination, such as methylene chloride/methanol in a ratio of 1 1 followed... 

The following example describes the results of the dereplication of an HTP fraction library for inhibition of melanin formation in an in vitro assay with a B16 cell line [54]. Briefly, following the inhibition and cell viability assay, the active organic extract from the whole plant of Mallotus repandus was fractionated with HTP. All of the HTP fractions were tested for melanin inhibitory activities. As shown in Figure 8, there are three major peaks exhibiting > 50% inhibitions of melanin synthesis and seven minor peaks exhibiting weaker inhibitions. The sharp activity peaks indicate the quality of the separations, which distributed the active components in three to five cells.

Report of correct activity data due to faulty calibration or emission-fraction library. 

Many clones must be created to be confident that the genomic library contains the gene of interest. The probability, P, that some number of clones, N, contains a particular fragment representing a fraction, f, of the genome is... 

However, the use of a HPLC separation step enabled a remarkable acceleration of the deconvolution process. Instead of preparing all of the sublibraries, the c(Arg-Lys-O-Pro-O-P-Ala) library was fractionated on a semipreparative HPLC column and three fractions as shown in Fig. 3-2 were collected and subjected to amino acid analysis. According to the analysis, the least hydrophobic fraction, which eluted first, did not contain peptides that included valine, methionine, isoleucine, leucine, tyrosine, and phenylalanine residues and also did not exhibit any separation ability for the tested racemic amino acid derivatives (Table 3-1). 

In addition to the development of the powerful chiral additive, this study also demonstrated that the often tedious deconvolution process can be accelerated using HPLC separation. As a result, only 15 libraries had to be synthesized instead of 64 libraries that would be required for the full-scale deconvolution. A somewhat similar approach also involving HPLC fractionations has recently been demonstrated by Griffey for the deconvolution of libraries screened for biological activity [76]. Although demonstrated only for CE, the cyclic hexapeptides might also be useful selectors for the preparation of chiral stationary phases for HPLC. However, this would require the development of non-trivial additional chemistry to appropriately link the peptide to a porous solid support.

The major drawback of the ElogD method is that it cannot be applied to acidic compounds ionized at pH 7.4. However, on prachcal grounds, the latter represent a minor fraction of compounds in pharmaceutical libraries and structural alerts could be developed which are used to filter acidic compounds prior to the determination of Elog D in an automated fashion. 

The extracted fractions were esterified with either BF3-MeOH reagent or diazomethane and analyzed by GLC. Gas liquid chromatography (GLC) was conducted with a Perkin-Elmer Sigma 3 equipped with flame ionization detector. Separations were obtained on a Hewlett Packard 12 m x 0.2 mm i.d. capillary column coated with methyl silicon fluid (OV-101). The temperature was maintained at 80°C for 2 min then programmed from 80 to 220°C at 8°C/min. The injector temperature was 250°C. Mass spectra were obtained on a Hewlett Packard model 5995 GC-MS mass spectrometer, equipped with a 15 m fused silica capillary column coated with 5% phenyl methyl silicone fluid. Spectra were obtained for major peaks in the sample and compared with a library of spectra of authentic compounds.
