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.


Our selection of compounds is from a large virtual library of over 60 billion molecules. The production and distribution of these compounds are managed by Reaxense.


The library includes a list of the most promising modulators annotated with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness parameters. Also, each compound is presented with its optimal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, providing a comprehensive overview.


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

It includes in-depth molecular simulations of both the catalytic and allosteric binding pockets, with ensemble virtual screening focusing on their conformational flexibility. For modulators, the process includes considering the structural shifts due to reaction intermediates to boost activity and selectivity.


Our library is unique due to several crucial aspects:


  • Receptor.AI compiles all relevant data on the target protein, such as past experimental results, literature findings, known ligands, and structural data, thereby enhancing the likelihood of focusing on the most significant compounds.

  • By utilizing advanced molecular simulations, the platform is adept at locating potential binding sites, rendering the compounds in the focused library well-suited for unearthing allosteric inhibitors and binders for hidden pockets.

  • The platform is supported by more than 50 highly specialized AI models, all of which have been rigorously tested and validated in diverse drug discovery and research programs. Its design emphasizes efficiency, reliability, and accuracy, crucial for producing focused libraries.

  • Receptor.AI extends beyond just creating focused libraries; it offers a complete spectrum of services and solutions during the preclinical drug discovery phase, with a success-dependent pricing strategy that reduces risk and fosters shared success in the project.

UPID:
AK1D1_HUMAN

ALTERNATIVE NAMES:
3-oxo-5-beta-steroid 4-dehydrogenase; Delta(4)-3-ketosteroid 5-beta-reductase; Delta(4)-3-oxosteroid 5-beta-reductase

ALTERNATIVE UPACC:
P51857; A1L4P6; A8K060; B4DPN3; B4DPN8

BACKGROUND:
Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member D1, known for its alternative names such as Delta(4)-3-ketosteroid 5-beta-reductase, is crucial in the biosynthesis of bile acids and steroid metabolism. It specifically targets the reduction of delta-(4)-3-ketosteroids, ranging from C18 to C27, facilitating crucial biological processes.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Given its critical role in bile acid synthesis, mutations affecting Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member D1 are associated with Congenital bile acid synthesis defect 2, characterized by significant liver dysfunction. Targeting this protein could lead to innovative treatments for liver diseases and metabolic disorders.
