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.
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.
Our high-tech, dedicated method is applied to construct 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 is unique due to several crucial aspects:

Background:
FAD synthase, also known as FAD pyrophosphorylase or FMN adenylyltransferase, plays a crucial role in cellular energy processes. It catalyzes the adenylation of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) to form flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), a coenzyme essential for various biochemical reactions. The protein's alternative names highlight its functional diversity and importance in the flavin coenzyme biosynthesis pathway.
Therapeutic significance:
The protein is linked to Lipid storage myopathy due to flavin adenine dinucleotide synthetase deficiency, a metabolic disorder with a spectrum of clinical manifestations. This condition underscores the protein's critical role in mitochondrial function and energy metabolism. Understanding the role of FAD synthase could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies, including riboflavin treatment, which has shown significant improvement in some patients.
