Focused On-demand Libraries - Receptor.AI Collaboration


Explore the Potential with AI-Driven Innovation

The focused library is created on demand with the latest virtual screening and parameter assessment technology, supported by the Receptor.AI drug discovery platform. This method is more effective than traditional methods and results in higher-quality compounds with better activity, selectivity, and safety.


From a virtual chemical space containing more than 60 billion molecules, we precisely choose certain compounds. Reaxense aids in their synthesis and provision.


In the library, a selection of top modulators is provided, each marked with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 parameters related to physicochemical properties and drug-likeness. Also, every compound comes with its best docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, providing a comprehensive overview.


Our high-tech, dedicated method is applied to construct targeted libraries.

By deploying molecular simulations, our approach comprehensively covers a broad array of proteins, tracking their flexibility and dynamics individually and within complexes. Ensemble virtual screening is utilised to take into account conformational dynamics, identifying pivotal binding sites located within functional regions and at allosteric locations. This thorough exploration ensures that every conceivable mechanism of action is considered, aiming to identify new therapeutic targets and advance lead compounds throughout a vast spectrum of biological functions.


Several key aspects differentiate our library:


  • Receptor.AI compiles an all-encompassing dataset on the target protein, including historical experiments, literature data, known ligands, and structural insights, maximising the chances of prioritising the most pertinent compounds.

  • The platform employs state-of-the-art molecular simulations to identify potential binding sites, ensuring the focused library is primed for discovering allosteric inhibitors and binders of concealed pockets.

  • Over 50 customisable AI models, thoroughly evaluated in various drug discovery endeavours and research projects, make Receptor.AI both efficient and accurate. This technology is integral to the development of our focused libraries.

  • In addition to generating focused libraries, Receptor.AI offers a full range of services and solutions for every step of preclinical drug discovery, with a pricing model based on success, thereby reducing risk and promoting joint project success.

BACKGROUND:
The protein Importin subunit alpha-4, known alternatively as Importin alpha Q2, Karyopherin subunit alpha-3, and SRP1-gamma, is integral to the nuclear import of proteins. It specifically recognizes substrates with NLS motifs, facilitating their transport into the nucleus via a complex process that includes interaction with KPNB1 and nucleoporin, and is powered by Ran-GTPase.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Given its critical function in the pathogenesis of Spastic paraplegia 88, autosomal dominant, Importin subunit alpha-4 represents a promising target for therapeutic intervention. The exploration of its role offers a pathway to developing treatments for this and potentially other related neurodegenerative conditions.
