Focused On-demand Libraries - Receptor.AI Collaboration


Explore the Potential with AI-Driven Innovation

Our detailed focused library is generated on demand with advanced virtual screening and parameter assessment technology powered by the Receptor.AI drug discovery platform. This method surpasses traditional approaches, delivering compounds of better quality with enhanced activity, selectivity, and safety.


The compounds are cherry-picked from the vast virtual chemical space of over 60B molecules. The synthesis and delivery of compounds is facilitated by Reaxense.


The library includes a list of the most effective modulators, each annotated with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness parameters. Furthermore, each compound is shown with its optimal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, offering a detailed summary.


We employ our advanced, specialised process to create targeted libraries.

Our methodology leverages molecular simulations to examine a vast array of proteins, capturing their dynamics in both isolated forms and in complexes with other proteins. Through ensemble virtual screening, we thoroughly account for the protein's conformational mobility, identifying critical binding sites within functional regions and distant allosteric locations. This detailed exploration ensures that we comprehensively assess every possible mechanism of action, with the objective of identifying novel therapeutic targets and lead compounds that span a wide spectrum of biological functions.


Our library stands out due to several important features:


  • The Receptor.AI platform compiles comprehensive data on the target protein, encompassing previous experiments, literature, known ligands, structural details, and more, leading to a higher chance of selecting the most relevant compounds.

  • Advanced molecular simulations on the platform help pinpoint potential binding sites, making the compounds in our focused library ideal for finding allosteric inhibitors and targeting cryptic pockets.

  • Receptor.AI boasts over 50 tailor-made AI models, rigorously tested and proven in various drug discovery projects and research initiatives. They are crafted for efficacy, dependability, and precision, all of which are key in creating our focused libraries.

  • Beyond creating focused libraries, Receptor.AI offers comprehensive services and complete solutions throughout the preclinical drug discovery phase. Our success-based pricing model minimises risk and maximises the mutual benefits of the project's success.

UPID:
K2C1_HUMAN

ALTERNATIVE NAMES:
67 kDa cytokeratin; Cytokeratin-1; Hair alpha protein; Keratin-1; Type-II keratin Kb1

ALTERNATIVE UPACC:
P04264; B2RA01; P85925; P86104; Q14720; Q6GSJ0; Q9H298

BACKGROUND:
The protein Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 1, with aliases such as Cytokeratin-1 and Keratin-1, is essential for the structural framework of epithelial cells. It binds to integrin beta-1 and RACK1, regulating kinase activity, which is crucial for cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. This protein's multifaceted role underscores its importance in maintaining epithelial integrity.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Mutations in the gene encoding Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 1, lead to severe skin disorders, including Palmoplantar Keratoderma and Ichthyosis, annular epidermolytic. These diseases highlight the therapeutic significance of this protein in dermatology. Exploring Keratin-1's function and pathology could pave the way for innovative treatments for these and related skin conditions.
