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.
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.
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.

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.
Our library stands out due to several important features:

Background:
Retinol dehydrogenase 10 (RDH10), also known as Short chain dehydrogenase/reductase family 16C member 4, plays a pivotal role in the metabolism of vitamin A. It specifically catalyzes the conversion of all-trans-retinol to all-trans-retinal, a critical reaction in the visual cycle and vitamin A metabolism, with a marked preference for NADP. Unlike other enzymes in its family, RDH10 does not act on 11-cis-retinol, 9-cis-retinol, or 13-cis-retinol.
Therapeutic significance:
Understanding the role of Retinol dehydrogenase 10 could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies. Its specific activity in vitamin A metabolism suggests its involvement in visual function and possibly in disorders related to vitamin A deficiency or excess.
