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 carefully select specific compounds from a vast collection of over 60 billion molecules in virtual chemical space. Our partner Reaxense helps in synthesizing and delivering these compounds.
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.

Utilising molecular simulations, our approach thoroughly examines a wide array of proteins, tracking their conformational changes individually and within complexes. Ensemble virtual screening enables us to address conformational flexibility, revealing essential binding sites at functional regions and allosteric locations. Our rigorous analysis guarantees that no potential mechanism of action is overlooked, aiming to uncover new therapeutic targets and lead compounds across diverse biological functions.

Background:
Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 5 (SMAD5), also known as JV5-1, is a pivotal transcriptional regulator involved in a myriad of cellular processes such as embryonic development, cell differentiation, angiogenesis, and tissue homeostasis. It is activated upon BMP ligand binding, leading to its phosphorylation by type I BMP receptors. This activation facilitates the formation of a heteromeric complex with SMAD4, which then translocates to the nucleus to function as a transcription factor. Additionally, non-phosphorylated SMAD5 plays a crucial role in energy metabolism by promoting mitochondrial respiration and glycolysis, interacting with hexokinase 1/HK1 to accelerate glycolysis.
Therapeutic significance:
Understanding the role of Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 5 could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies.
