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.
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 our partner 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.
Our high-tech, dedicated method is applied to construct targeted 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.

Background:
Alpha-2,8-sialyltransferase 8E, also known as Sialyltransferase 8E and Sialyltransferase St8Sia V, plays a crucial role in the synthesis of complex gangliosides such as GD1c, GT1a, GQ1b, GP1c, and GT3. These gangliosides are derived from simpler precursors like GD1a, GT1b, GM1b, and GD3, showcasing the enzyme's pivotal role in cellular membrane composition and signaling.
Therapeutic significance:
Understanding the role of Alpha-2,8-sialyltransferase 8E could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies. Its involvement in the synthesis of gangliosides, which are critical for cell-to-cell communication and neuronal function, suggests that targeting this enzyme could offer new avenues for treating neurological disorders.
