Focused On-demand Library for Acetylcholine receptor subunit alpha

Focused On-demand Libraries - Reaxense 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 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.

Our high-tech, dedicated method is applied to construct targeted libraries for receptors.

This process includes extensive molecular simulations of the receptor in its native membrane environment, along with ensemble virtual screening that accounts for its conformational mobility. In the case of dimeric or oligomeric receptors, the entire functional complex is modelled, identifying potential binding pockets on and between the subunits to encompass all possible mechanisms of action.

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:

The Acetylcholine receptor subunit alpha plays a pivotal role in neuromuscular signaling, facilitating communication between nerve and muscle cells. Upon acetylcholine binding, it undergoes a significant conformational change, leading to the opening of an ion-conducting channel. This process is crucial for muscle contraction and coordination.

Therapeutic significance:

Mutations in this protein are linked to severe conditions such as Multiple pterygium syndrome, lethal type, and congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS1A and CMS1B), characterized by muscle weakness and neuromuscular transmission failure. Targeting these pathways offers a promising avenue for therapeutic intervention in these genetic disorders.
