Focused On-demand Library for Galactokinase

Focused On-demand Libraries - Reaxense Collaboration

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.

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 effective modulators, each annotated with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness parameters. Furthermore, each compound is shown with its optimal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, offering a detailed summary.

Our top-notch dedicated system is used to design specialised 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.

Key features that set our library apart include:

The Receptor.AI platform integrates extensive information about the target protein, such as historical experiments, academic research, known ligands, and structural insights, thereby increasing the likelihood of identifying highly relevant compounds.
The platform’s sophisticated molecular simulations are designed to discover potential binding sites, ensuring that our focused library is optimal for the discovery of allosteric inhibitors and binders for cryptic pockets.
With over 50 customisable AI models, verified through extensive testing in commercial drug discovery and research, Receptor.AI is efficient, reliable, and precise. These models are essential in the production of our focused libraries.
Receptor.AI not only produces focused libraries but also provides full services and solutions at every stage of preclinical drug discovery, with a success-based pricing structure that aligns our interests with the success of your project.

P51570

UPID:

GALK1_HUMAN

Alternative names:

Galactose kinase

Alternative UPACC:

P51570; B2RC07; B4E1G6

Background:

Galactokinase, encoded by the gene with accession number P51570, plays a pivotal role in galactose metabolism. It catalyzes the phosphorylation of alpha-D-galactose to galactose-1-phosphate, a critical step in the catabolism of galactose. This enzyme's activity is essential for the effective utilization and detoxification of galactose in the human body.

Therapeutic significance:

Galactokinase deficiency leads to Galactosemia 2, a metabolic disorder characterized by jaundice, hepatosplenomegaly, and cataracts, among other symptoms. This condition underscores the enzyme's crucial role in metabolic health and highlights the potential for targeted therapies to correct its deficiency.
