Explore the Potential with AI-Driven Innovation
This comprehensive focused library is produced on demand with state-of-the-art virtual screening and parameter assessment technology driven by Receptor.AI drug discovery platform. This approach outperforms traditional methods and provides higher-quality compounds with superior activity, selectivity and safety.
From a virtual chemical space containing more than 60 billion molecules, we precisely choose certain compounds. Our collaborator, Reaxense, aids in their synthesis and provision.
The library features a range of promising modulators, each detailed with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness parameters. Plus, each compound is presented with its ideal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, ensuring a thorough insight.
We employ our advanced, specialised process to create 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.

Background:
DnaJ homolog subfamily C member 5, also known as Ceroid-lipofuscinosis neuronal protein 4 and Cysteine string protein, plays a crucial role in regulated exocytosis, acting as a general chaperone. It serves as a co-chaperone for the SNARE protein SNAP-25 and is involved in the calcium-mediated control of a late stage of exocytosis. Its involvement in calcium-dependent neurotransmitter release at nerve endings underscores its importance in presynaptic function.
Therapeutic significance:
The protein is linked to Ceroid lipofuscinosis, neuronal, 4B (Kufs type), a neurodegenerative disease characterized by seizures and other neurologic symptoms. Understanding the role of DnaJ homolog subfamily C member 5 could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies for this condition.
