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 enzymes.

The procedure entails thorough molecular simulations of the catalytic and allosteric binding pockets, accompanied by ensemble virtual screening that factors in their conformational flexibility. When developing modulators, the structural modifications brought about by reaction intermediates are factored in to optimize 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.

ALTERNATIVE NAMES:
Periodontal ligament-associated protein 1

ALTERNATIVE UPACC:
Q9BXN1; Q5TBF3; Q96K79; Q96LD0; Q9NXP3

BACKGROUND:
Asporin negatively regulates chondrogenesis in articular cartilage by blocking TGF-beta/receptor interaction, inhibiting the canonical TGF-beta/Smad signal, and plays a role in osteoblast-driven collagen biomineralization. This protein binds calcium and is crucial for preventing ossification of the periodontal ligament.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Understanding the role of Asporin could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies, especially considering its significant impact on osteoarthritis and intervertebral disc disease pathogenesis. Its genetic variants associated with disease susceptibility present a promising avenue for personalized medicine.
