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.


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

Our strategy employs molecular simulations to explore an extensive range of proteins, capturing their dynamics both individually and within complexes with other proteins. Through ensemble virtual screening, we address proteins' conformational mobility, uncovering key binding sites at both functional regions and remote allosteric locations. This comprehensive investigation ensures a thorough assessment of all potential mechanisms of action, with the goal of discovering innovative therapeutic targets and lead molecules across across diverse biological functions.


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.

ALTERNATIVE NAMES:
Ferroportin-1; Iron-regulated transporter 1

ALTERNATIVE UPACC:
Q9NP59; Q6FI62; Q7Z4F8; Q8IVB2; Q9NRL0

BACKGROUND:
The protein Solute carrier family 40 member 1, or Ferroportin-1, is integral to systemic iron regulation. It exports iron from cells to the bloodstream, a process essential for maintaining iron balance across tissues. By modulating iron efflux, SLC40A1 influences dietary iron absorption and the mobilization of iron from stores, acting under the control of hepcidin levels in response to iron availability.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Alterations in SLC40A1 function are implicated in Hemochromatosis 4, an iron metabolism disorder leading to iron overload and subsequent organ damage. Targeting SLC40A1 offers a promising avenue for therapeutic intervention in diseases caused by iron dysregulation, highlighting the importance of further research into its mechanisms and potential drug targets.
