Resumo

Significance A large compound screening collection is usually constructed to be tested in many distinct assays, each one designed to find modulators of a different biological process. However, it is generally not known to what extent a compound collection actually contains molecules with distinct biological effects (or even any effect) until it has been tested for a couple of years. This study explores a cost-effective way of rapidly assessing the biological performance diversity of a screening collection in a single assay. By simultaneously measuring a large number of cellular features, unbiased profiling assays can distinguish compound effects with high resolution and thus measure performance diversity. We show that this approach could be used as a filtering strategy to build effective screening collections.
