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 features a range of promising modulators, each detailed with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness parameters. Plus, each compound is presented with its ideal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, ensuring a thorough insight.


Our top-notch dedicated system is used to design specialised 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.


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.

ALTERNATIVE NAMES:
Cardiac-specific homeobox; Homeobox protein CSX; Homeobox protein NK-2 homolog E

ALTERNATIVE UPACC:
P52952; A8K3K0; B4DNB6; E9PBU6

BACKGROUND:
The Homeobox protein Nkx-2.5, known alternatively as Homeobox protein CSX, is a transcription factor required for heart and spleen development. It positively regulates transcription of genes like COL3A1 and MMP2, enhancing pulmonary endothelial fibrosis in response to hypoxia. This protein's interaction with GATA4 and TBX2 is vital for its regulatory functions during heart development.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Homeobox protein Nkx-2.5's involvement in critical congenital heart malformations and its regulatory role in gene expression make it a significant target for drug discovery. Its association with diseases such as Conotruncal heart malformations and Ventricular septal defect 3 underscores the therapeutic potential of targeting this protein in congenital heart disease treatment.
