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.
We carefully select specific compounds from a vast collection of over 60 billion molecules in virtual chemical space. Our partner Reaxense helps in synthesizing and delivering these compounds.
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 enzymes.

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.

Background:
Caspase-2, known as Neural precursor cell expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 2 or Protease ICH-1, plays a pivotal role in the apoptosis execution cascade. It functions through the activation of proteins essential for cell death or the inactivation of proteins crucial for cell survival. Caspase-2 forms part of the PIDDosome complex, alongside PIDD1 and CRADD, which activates CASP2 and induces apoptosis in response to genotoxic stress.
Therapeutic significance:
Understanding the role of Caspase-2 could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies.
