Abstract: Disclosed is a method for obtaining a bifunctional complex comprising a display molecule part and a coding part, wherein a nascent bifuntional complex comprising a chemical reaction site and a priming site for enzymatic addition of a tag is reacted at the chemical reaction site with one or more reactants, and provided with respective tag(s) identifying the reactant(s) at the priming site is using one or more enzymes.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for generating a second-generation library. In a first step, a library of encoded molecules associated with an identifier nucleic acid comprising codons identifying chemical entities that have participated in the formation of the encoded molecule is provided. In a second step, the library is partitioned and encoded molecules having a certain property are selected. Codons of identifiers of selected encoded molecules are subsequently identified, and a second-generation library is prepared using at least some of the chemical entities coded for by the identified codons. The new focussed library may be used for another partition step to select encoded molecules with a certain property.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for obtaining a bifunctional complex comprising a molecule linked to a single stranded identifier oligonucleotide, wherein a nascent bifunctional complex comprising a chemical reaction site and a priming site for enzymatic addition of a tag is a) reacted at the chemical reaction site with one or more reactants, and b) reacted enzymatically at the priming site with one or more tag(s) identifying the reactant(s).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for selecting a molecule from a library of such molecules associated with identifier oligonucleotides, said molecule having affinity towards a target. The method involves contacting library with a target to allow for an interaction between the molecules and the target and partitioning a fraction enriched in identifier oligonucleotides of molecules interacting with the target. After an optional nucleic acid amplification of the partitioned fraction, the fraction is subjected to conditions at which hetero-duplexes and homo-duplexes are formed. The homo-duplexes are subsequently recovered and decoded to identify the identity of the molecule interacting with the target.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present invention relates to a method for obtaining structural information about an encoded molecule. The encoded molecule may be produced by a reaction of a plurality of chemical entities and may be capable of being connected to an identifier oligonucleotide containing codons informative of the identity of the chemical entities which have participated in the formation of the encoded molecule. In a certain embodiment, primers are designed complementary to the codons appearing on the identifier oligonucleotide, and the presence, absence or relative abundance of a codon is evaluated by mixing a primer with the identifier oligonucleotide in the presence of a polymerase and substrate (deoxy)ribonucleotide triphosphates and measuring the extension reaction. In another aspect, the invention provides a method for selecting compounds which binds to a target.
