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 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.
Contained in the library are leading modulators, each labelled with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness qualities. In addition, each compound is illustrated with its optimal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, giving a complete picture.
We employ our advanced, specialised process to create targeted libraries for enzymes.

The procedure entails thorough molecular simulations of the catalytic and allosteric binding pockets, accompanied by ensemble virtual screening that factors in their conformational flexibility. When developing modulators, the structural modifications brought about by reaction intermediates are factored in to optimize activity and selectivity.

Background:
Cysteine protease ATG4D, known for its pivotal role in autophagy, mediates the proteolytic activation and delipidation of ATG8 family proteins. This process is crucial for autophagy, a cellular mechanism involved in the degradation and recycling of cellular components. ATG4D specifically targets MAP1LC3 and GABARAPL2, revealing a C-terminal glycine essential for their conjugation and membrane insertion. Additionally, ATG4D's delipidation activity facilitates the recycling of ATG8 proteins, playing a significant role in both canonical and non-canonical autophagy pathways.
Therapeutic significance:
Understanding the role of Cysteine protease ATG4D could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies.
