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.


We pick out particular compounds from an extensive virtual database of more than 60 billion molecules. The preparation and shipment of these compounds are 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.


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

This approach involves comprehensive molecular simulations of the catalytic and allosteric binding pockets and ensemble virtual screening that accounts for their conformational flexibility. In the case of designing modulators, the structural adjustments caused by reaction intermediates are considered to improve activity and selectivity.


Key features that set our library apart include:


  • The Receptor.AI platform integrates extensive information about the target protein, such as historical experiments, academic research, known ligands, and structural insights, thereby increasing the likelihood of identifying highly relevant compounds.

  • The platform’s sophisticated molecular simulations are designed to discover potential binding sites, ensuring that our focused library is optimal for the discovery of allosteric inhibitors and binders for cryptic pockets.

  • With over 50 customisable AI models, verified through extensive testing in commercial drug discovery and research, Receptor.AI is efficient, reliable, and precise. These models are essential in the production of our focused libraries.

  • Receptor.AI not only produces focused libraries but also provides full services and solutions at every stage of preclinical drug discovery, with a success-based pricing structure that aligns our interests with the success of your project.

BACKGROUND:
The Endothelin-converting enzyme 2 (ECE-2) is a crucial enzyme in the conversion of big endothelin-1 to endothelin-1, impacting vascular function significantly. It also processes several neuroendocrine peptides, including neurotensin, angiotensin I, substance P, and peptides from proenkephalin and prodynorphin, indicating its extensive role in neuroendocrine signaling. The enzyme's potential involvement in amyloid-beta peptide processing suggests a link to Alzheimer's disease pathology.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
The exploration of Endothelin-converting enzyme 2's functions offers a promising avenue for therapeutic intervention. Given its critical role in peptide processing and potential involvement in amyloid-beta processing, targeting ECE-2 could lead to innovative treatments for both cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, marking it as a key protein in drug discovery efforts.
