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.


Contained in the library are leading modulators, each labelled with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness qualities. In addition, each compound is illustrated with its optimal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, giving a complete picture.


Our high-tech, dedicated method is applied to construct targeted 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:
Cyclic nucleotide ras GEF; Neural RAP guanine nucleotide exchange protein; PDZ domain-containing guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1; RA-GEF-1; Ras/Rap1-associating GEF-1

ALTERNATIVE UPACC:
Q9Y4G8; D3DP27

BACKGROUND:
RapGEF2 functions as a critical guanine nucleotide exchange factor, activating small GTPases in the Rap and Ras families. This protein plays a key role in linking cell surface receptors to GTPase-mediated intracellular signaling pathways. It is essential for neuron migration, brain development, and endothelial barrier function. RapGEF2's activity is modulated by cAMP and it interacts with various signaling molecules, including Rap1 and ADRB1.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Given RapGEF2's association with familial adult myoclonic epilepsy 7, its study offers promising avenues for drug discovery. Targeting RapGEF2 could lead to innovative treatments for epilepsy and other related neurological conditions, emphasizing the importance of its research in therapeutic development.
