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.
The compounds are cherry-picked from the vast virtual chemical space of over 60B molecules. The synthesis and delivery of compounds is facilitated by our partner Reaxense.
The library features a range of promising modulators, each detailed with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness parameters. Plus, each compound is presented with its ideal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, ensuring a thorough insight.
We employ our advanced, specialised process to create targeted libraries for enzymes.

This approach involves comprehensive molecular simulations of the catalytic and allosteric binding pockets and ensemble virtual screening that accounts for their conformational flexibility. In the case of designing modulators, the structural adjustments caused by reaction intermediates are considered to improve activity and selectivity.

Background:
Ubiquitin-like modifier-activating enzyme ATG7, also known as ATG12-activating enzyme E1 ATG7 and Autophagy-related protein 7, plays a pivotal role in autophagy, facilitating the conjugation of ATG12 with ATG5 and the ATG8 family proteins with phosphatidylethanolamine. This process is essential for the formation of autophagosomes, contributing to cellular homeostasis by regulating mitochondrial quantity and quality, modulating p53/TP53 activity, and supporting axonal homeostasis.
Therapeutic significance:
ATG7's involvement in Spinocerebellar ataxia, autosomal recessive, 31, underscores its potential as a therapeutic target. Understanding the role of ATG7 could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies for treating neurodegenerative diseases and conditions related to autophagy dysfunction.
