The genomics era has brought forth
a wealth of information that has revolutionized the way we do science and has
had a large impact in drug discovery. One of the major bottlenecks we face at
the moment is how to establish a link from the genomic information into function
and relevance to disease. Pharmacom intends to integrate database mining,
functional genomics, automation, and bioinformatics to assign function to novel
targets. The effect of genotype on phenotype is poorly understood in the context
of common diseases. However, this understanding promises novel genomic-based
drugs, diagnostics tools, and preventive medicine. We are developing a
comprehensive approach for the genetic dissection of common diseases by applying
DNA pooling to large sample sizes from homogeneous populations. This allows
high-throughput scanning of a large number of SNPs across the genome on several
common diseases. |
