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.
Our selection of compounds is from a large virtual library of over 60 billion molecules. The production and distribution of these compounds are managed by our partner Reaxense.
In the library, a selection of top modulators is provided, each marked with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 parameters related to physicochemical properties and drug-likeness. Also, every compound comes with its best docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, providing a comprehensive overview.
We employ our advanced, specialised process to create targeted libraries.

Our strategy employs molecular simulations to explore an extensive range of proteins, capturing their dynamics both individually and within complexes with other proteins. Through ensemble virtual screening, we address proteins' conformational mobility, uncovering key binding sites at both functional regions and remote allosteric locations. This comprehensive investigation ensures a thorough assessment of all potential mechanisms of action, with the goal of discovering innovative therapeutic targets and lead molecules across across diverse biological functions.

Background:
Ly6/PLAUR domain-containing protein 6B plays a pivotal role in modulating nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), crucial for neurotransmission. It acts in a subtype- and stoichiometry-dependent manner, particularly influencing alpha-3(3):beta-4(2) nAChRs by enhancing sensitivity to acetylcholine, modulating maximal current response, and altering desensitization rates. Notably, it exhibits a distinct interaction with alpha-7 homomeric nAChRs and alpha-3(2):alpha-5:beta-4(2) nAChRs based on the CHRNA5/alpha-5 variant.
Therapeutic significance:
Understanding the role of Ly6/PLAUR domain-containing protein 6B could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies, especially in disorders related to neurotransmission dysregulation.
