Abstract
The study of natural compounds is a scientific area at the interface of biology and chemistry. Examples of achievements in studying biologically active substances are given, and those most promising for the development of effective drugs are considered in detail. The focus is placed on basic research and applied studies performed in recent years by the Elyakov Pacific Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, RAS Far East Branch. New approaches to the search for and study of natural compounds, as well as the prospects of this scientific trend, are discussed.
