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 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:
5-methylcytosine tRNA methyltransferase NSUN4, also known as NOL1/NOP2/Sun domain family member 4, is integral to mitochondrial ribosome assembly. It specifically methylates mitochondrial 12S rRNA, facilitating the maturation of the mitochondrial ribosome small subunit. This function is crucial for the final step in ribosome biogenesis, ensuring the assembly of both SSU and LSU. NSUN4's targeting to the LSU by MTERFD2/MTERF4 highlights its pivotal role in ribosome biogenesis, with its methylation activity on 16S rRNA of the LSU being a key aspect of its function.

THERAPEUTIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Exploring the function of 5-methylcytosine tRNA methyltransferase NSUN4 unveils potential pathways for therapeutic intervention.
