Focused On-demand Libraries - Reaxense Collaboration

Explore the Potential with AI-Driven Innovation

Our detailed focused library is generated on demand with advanced virtual screening and parameter assessment technology powered by the Receptor.AI drug discovery platform. This method surpasses traditional approaches, delivering compounds of better quality with enhanced 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.

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.

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

Our methodology leverages molecular simulations to examine a vast array of proteins, capturing their dynamics in both isolated forms and in complexes with other proteins. Through ensemble virtual screening, we thoroughly account for the protein's conformational mobility, identifying critical binding sites within functional regions and distant allosteric locations. This detailed exploration ensures that we comprehensively assess every possible mechanism of action, with the objective of identifying novel therapeutic targets and lead compounds that span a wide spectrum of biological functions.

Our library distinguishes itself through several key aspects:

  • The Receptor.AI platform integrates all available data about the target protein, including past experiments, literature data, known ligands, structural information and more. This consolidated approach maximises the probability of prioritising highly relevant compounds.
  • The platform uses sophisticated molecular simulations to identify possible binding sites so that the compounds in the focused library are suitable for discovering allosteric inhibitors and the binders for cryptic pockets.
  • The platform integrates over 50 highly customisable AI models, which are thoroughly tested and validated on a multitude of commercial drug discovery programs and research projects. It is designed to be efficient, reliable and accurate. All this power is utilised when producing the focused libraries.
  • In addition to producing the focused libraries, Receptor.AI provides services and end-to-end solutions at every stage of preclinical drug discovery. The pricing model is success-based, which reduces your risks and leverages the mutual benefits of the project's success.

Alternative names:

3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type VII; 3-beta-hydroxy-Delta(5)-C27 steroid oxidoreductase; Cholest-5-ene-3-beta,7-alpha-diol 3-beta-dehydrogenase

Alternative UPACC:

Background:

3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 7 (3β-HSD7) is pivotal in the biosynthesis of all classes of hormonal steroids. It specifically acts against four 7-alpha-hydroxylated sterols, playing a crucial role in bile acid synthesis. This enzyme's unique activity distinguishes it from other steroid metabolizing enzymes by not processing several C(19/21) steroids as substrates.

Therapeutic significance:

The enzyme's malfunction is linked to Congenital bile acid synthesis defect 1, a disease characterized by neonatal jaundice, severe intrahepatic cholestasis, and cirrhosis. Understanding the role of 3β-HSD7 could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies for this progressive liver disease.
