Explore the Potential with AI-Driven Innovation
The specialised, focused library is developed on demand with the most recent virtual screening and parameter assessment technology, guided by the Receptor.AI drug discovery platform. This approach exceeds the capabilities of traditional methods and offers compounds with higher activity, selectivity, and safety.
We pick out particular compounds from an extensive virtual database of more than 60 billion molecules. The preparation and shipment of these compounds are facilitated by our associate 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.
We employ our advanced, specialised process to create targeted libraries for enzymes.

It includes in-depth molecular simulations of both the catalytic and allosteric binding pockets, with ensemble virtual screening focusing on their conformational flexibility. For modulators, the process includes considering the structural shifts due to reaction intermediates to boost activity and selectivity.

Background:
N-acetylgalactosamine kinase, also known as GalNAc kinase or Galactokinase 2, plays a crucial role in carbohydrate metabolism. It acts on GalNAc and serves as a galactokinase, especially when galactose is present in high concentrations. This enzyme is pivotal in a salvage pathway for the reutilization of free GalNAc, which is derived from the degradation of complex carbohydrates.
Therapeutic significance:
Understanding the role of N-acetylgalactosamine kinase could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies. Its involvement in carbohydrate metabolism and salvage pathways highlights its importance in cellular processes and disease mechanisms.
