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

The method includes detailed molecular simulations of the catalytic and allosteric binding pockets, along with ensemble virtual screening that considers their conformational flexibility. In the design of modulators, structural changes induced by reaction intermediates are taken into account to enhance activity and selectivity.

Background:
Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) plays a pivotal role in neuronal development, including cell cycle arrest, differentiation, and synaptic plasticity. It phosphorylates a wide array of substrates, influencing processes such as axonal growth, synaptic vesicle exocytosis, and neurotransmitter release. CDK5's activity is tightly regulated by its activators, p35 and p39, ensuring its specific function in postmitotic neurons.
Therapeutic significance:
CDK5's aberrant activation is linked to neurodegenerative diseases, including Lissencephaly 7, characterized by severe brain malformations and early-onset intractable seizures. Understanding CDK5's role could unveil novel therapeutic strategies for these devastating conditions.
