Focused On-demand Libraries - Receptor.AI Collaboration


Explore the Potential with AI-Driven Innovation

The specialised, focused library is developed on demand with the most recent virtual screening and parameter assessment technology, guided by the Receptor.AI drug discovery platform. This approach exceeds the capabilities of traditional methods and offers compounds with higher 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.


In the library, a selection of top modulators is provided, each marked with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 parameters related to physicochemical properties and drug-likeness. Also, every compound comes with its best docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, providing a comprehensive overview.


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

It includes comprehensive molecular simulations of the catalytic and allosteric binding pockets and the ensemble virtual screening accounting for their conformational mobility. In the case of designing modulators, the structural changes induced by reaction intermediates are taken into account to leverage activity and selectivity.


Our library distinguishes itself through several key aspects:


  • The Receptor.AI platform integrates all available data about the target protein, including past experiments, literature data, known ligands, structural information and more. This consolidated approach maximises the probability of prioritising highly relevant compounds.

  • The platform uses sophisticated molecular simulations to identify possible binding sites so that the compounds in the focused library are suitable for discovering allosteric inhibitors and the binders for cryptic pockets.

  • The platform integrates over 50 highly customisable AI models, which are thoroughly tested and validated on a multitude of commercial drug discovery programs and research projects. It is designed to be efficient, reliable and accurate. All this power is utilised when producing the focused libraries.

  • In addition to producing the focused libraries, Receptor.AI provides services and end-to-end solutions at every stage of preclinical drug discovery. The pricing model is success-based, which reduces your risks and leverages the mutual benefits of the project's success.

BACKGROUND:
The Sodium-dependent lysophosphatidylcholine symporter 1 plays a crucial role in the transport of LPC, a major mechanism for the entry of essential fatty acids into the brain, supporting normal brain development and function. Its expression is specific to the blood-brain barrier's endothelium, underscoring its importance in maintaining brain health.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Given its critical function in brain development and the maintenance of the blood-brain barrier, the Sodium-dependent lysophosphatidylcholine symporter 1's association with neurodevelopmental disorders underscores the potential for developing targeted therapies. Exploring this protein's mechanisms could lead to breakthroughs in treating related brain abnormalities.
