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.
The compounds are cherry-picked from the vast virtual chemical space of over 60B molecules. The synthesis and delivery of compounds is facilitated by our partner Reaxense.
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.
We use our state-of-the-art dedicated workflow for designing focused libraries for enzymes.

The procedure entails thorough molecular simulations of the catalytic and allosteric binding pockets, accompanied by ensemble virtual screening that factors in their conformational flexibility. When developing modulators, the structural modifications brought about by reaction intermediates are factored in to optimize activity and selectivity.

Background:
Dehydrogenase/reductase SDR family member 4 (DHRS4) is a versatile NADPH-dependent oxidoreductase, catalyzing the reduction of various carbonyl-containing compounds, including ketosteroids, alpha-dicarbonyl compounds, and quinones. It exhibits a unique stereoselectivity, converting 3-ketosteroids to 3beta-hydroxysteroids and benzil to R-benzoin, differing from non-primate DHRS4s. This enzyme plays a crucial role in the metabolism of 3beta-hydroxysteroids, isatin, and xenobiotic carbonyl compounds.
Therapeutic significance:
Understanding the role of Dehydrogenase/reductase SDR family member 4 could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies.
