This article describes the application of a high‐throughput X‐ray crystallographic fragment‐based screening methodology to identify low‐molecular‐weight leads for structure‐based optimisation into protein kinase inhibitors. The identification of two novel p38α MAP kinase inhibitors (with IC 50 =65 and 150 n M ) starting from low‐molecular‐weight fragments is described.
