Q1. Drug effects are conditional. Drugs can target redundant gene products not limited to model systems Active compounds can help define drug leads and new "druggable" targets. Target identification can be technically challenging probably not as random as mutagenesis. What is essential for effective chemical genetics?

Q2. Describe the term "free radical" and briefly explain how free radicals can cause tissue damage. How does this relate to cross linking and why is this significant?
