Focused On-demand Library for Dedicator of cytokinesis protein 3

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.

From a virtual chemical space containing more than 60 billion molecules, we precisely choose certain compounds. Our collaborator, Reaxense, aids in their synthesis and provision.

The library includes a list of the most promising modulators annotated with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness parameters. Also, each compound is presented with its optimal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, providing a comprehensive overview.

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

Our methodology leverages molecular simulations to examine a vast array of proteins, capturing their dynamics in both isolated forms and in complexes with other proteins. Through ensemble virtual screening, we thoroughly account for the protein's conformational mobility, identifying critical binding sites within functional regions and distant allosteric locations. This detailed exploration ensures that we comprehensively assess every possible mechanism of action, with the objective of identifying novel therapeutic targets and lead compounds that span a wide spectrum of biological functions.

Several key aspects differentiate our library:

Receptor.AI compiles an all-encompassing dataset on the target protein, including historical experiments, literature data, known ligands, and structural insights, maximising the chances of prioritising the most pertinent compounds.
The platform employs state-of-the-art molecular simulations to identify potential binding sites, ensuring the focused library is primed for discovering allosteric inhibitors and binders of concealed pockets.
Over 50 customisable AI models, thoroughly evaluated in various drug discovery endeavours and research projects, make Receptor.AI both efficient and accurate. This technology is integral to the development of our focused libraries.
In addition to generating focused libraries, Receptor.AI offers a full range of services and solutions for every step of preclinical drug discovery, with a pricing model based on success, thereby reducing risk and promoting joint project success.

Background:

Dedicator of cytokinesis protein 3, also known as Modifier of cell adhesion and Presenilin-binding protein, plays a crucial role in cellular processes. It acts as a potential guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), which is pivotal in activating small GTPases by exchanging GDP for GTP. Its interaction with presenilin proteins and ability to stimulate Tau/MAPT phosphorylation highlight its involvement in Alzheimer's disease. Moreover, its role in decreasing amyloid-beta APBA1 protein secretion and cell-substratum adhesion suggests its impact on actin cytoskeleton regulation or cell adhesion receptors.

Therapeutic significance:

The protein's association with neurodevelopmental disorder with impaired intellectual development, hypotonia, and ataxia underscores its therapeutic significance. Understanding the role of Dedicator of cytokinesis protein 3 could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies for this disorder and Alzheimer's disease.
