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 includes a list of the most promising modulators annotated with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness parameters. Also, each compound is presented with its optimal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, providing a comprehensive overview.
Our top-notch dedicated system is used to design specialised 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.
Our library is unique due to several crucial aspects:

Background:
Alcohol dehydrogenase class-3 (ADH5), also known as Glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase, plays a crucial role in metabolizing long-chain primary alcohols and S-(hydroxymethyl)glutathione. Unlike other alcohol dehydrogenases, ADH5 is remarkably ineffective in oxidizing ethanol but is essential for the clearance of cellular formaldehyde, a known cytotoxic and carcinogenic metabolite that can induce DNA damage.
Therapeutic significance:
The involvement of ADH5 in AMED syndrome, a digenic form of bone marrow failure syndrome, underscores its therapeutic significance. The disease is linked to variants affecting ADH5 and ALDH2, leading to increased cellular sensitivity to formaldehyde and multisystem abnormalities, including hematopoietic failure. Understanding the role of ADH5 could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies for treating AMED syndrome and related conditions.
