Scoring screening libraries, diversity-based

Triciribine, also known as Akt/protein kinase B signaling inhibitor-2 (API-2) compound 52, Fig. 9), was identified by screening the National Cancer Institute Diversity Set chemical library (1992 compounds). The screen was performed using a cell-based proliferation assay with PKB/1 transformed NIH3T3 cells, and triciribine scored positive in this assay with an IC50 value of 50 nM [ 196]. Although the compound blocks the cellular phosphorylation...
