title: Frontiers in chemical genetics.
abstract: New methods enable the identification of compounds that both induce a specific cellular state and lead to identification of proteins that regulate that state. Together, developments in three critical areas: chemical diversity, phenotype-based screening and target identification, enable the systematic application of this chemical genetic approach to almost any biological problem or disease process.
