Focused On-demand Libraries - Receptor.AI Collaboration


Explore the Potential with AI-Driven Innovation

This extensive focused library is tailor-made using the latest virtual screening and parameter assessment technology, operated by the Receptor.AI drug discovery platform. This technique is more effective than traditional methods, offering compounds with improved 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 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.


We utilise our cutting-edge, exclusive workflow to develop focused libraries for ion channels.

The method involves in-depth molecular simulations of the ion channel in its native membrane environment, including its open, closed, and inactivated states, along with ensemble virtual screening that focuses on conformational mobility for each state. Tentative binding pockets are identified inside the pore, in the gating area, and at allosteric sites to address every conceivable mechanism of action.


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.

BACKGROUND:
The Acid-sensing ion channel 1, alternatively named Amiloride-sensitive cation channel 2, neuronal or Brain sodium channel 2, is integral to neuronal function. It is activated by extracellular pH drops, selectively transporting sodium and lithium ions. Isoform 2's ability to transport potassium and isoform 3's capacity to transport calcium ions highlight its versatility. This channel's role in glutamate-independent Ca(2+) entry into neurons during acidosis suggests its potential impact on cortical neuron health and synaptic plasticity.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Exploring Acid-sensing ion channel 1's mechanisms offers a promising avenue for developing interventions aimed at protecting neurons from acidosis-induced damage and optimizing synaptic function, thereby contributing to the treatment of neurological conditions.
