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.
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.
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.
Our high-tech, dedicated method is applied to construct targeted libraries for enzymes.

This approach involves comprehensive molecular simulations of the catalytic and allosteric binding pockets and ensemble virtual screening that accounts for their conformational flexibility. In the case of designing modulators, the structural adjustments caused by reaction intermediates are considered to improve activity and selectivity.

Background:
Acidic mammalian chitinase, known as Lung-specific protein TSA1902, plays a crucial role in the body's defense mechanisms. It degrades chitin and chitotriose, substances found in the cell walls of fungi and exoskeletons of nematodes, contributing to the immune response against these pathogens. This protein is also pivotal in the T-helper cell type 2 (Th2) immune response, inflammation, and in protecting lung epithelial cells from apoptosis through AKT1 phosphorylation.
Therapeutic significance:
Understanding the role of Acidic mammalian chitinase could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies. Its involvement in immune response and cell protection highlights its potential as a target for treating respiratory diseases and conditions characterized by excessive inflammation or immune dysregulation.
