The transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) signaling pathway is involved in many cellular processes in both the adult organism and the developing embryo including cell growth, cell differentiation, apoptosis, cellular homeostasis and other cellular functions. The TGF-β superfamily comprises TGF-βs, bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), activins and related proteins. Signaling begins with the binding of a TGF beta superfamily ligand to a TGF beta type II receptor. The type II receptor is a serine/threonine receptor kinase, which catalyzes the phosphorylation of the Type I receptor. The type I receptor then phosphorylates receptor-regulated SMADs (R-SMADs) which can now bind the coSMAD (e.g. SMAD4). R-SMAD/coSMAD complexes accumulate in the nucleus where they act as transcription factors and participate in the regulation of target gene expression. Deregulation of TGF-β signaling contributes to developmental defects and human diseases, including cancers, some bone diseases, chronic kidney disease, etc.
MCE designs a unique collection of 458 TGF-beta/Smad signaling pathway compounds. TGF-beta/Smad Compound Library acts as a useful tool for TGF-beta/Smad-related drug screening and disease research.
Molecular Glue Virtual Library is constructed using generative AI technology, integrating the structural features, activity data of known molecular glues, and interaction information of ternary complexes (target protein-E3-molecular glue). Endowed with structural novelty, drug-likeness, diversity and synthesizability, it is applicable to molecular glue-based AI drug screening and large-scale virtual screening.
MCE builds this library based on high-quality molecular building blocks by virtue of robust computing power, coupled with rigorous reaction rules and optimized compound generation strategies. To ensure library quality, molecules with high synthetic difficulty, poor drug-likeness, PAINS and other undesirable molecules are excluded first. Subsequently, scaffold-based compound analysis is performed to screen drug-like diverse molecules for synthesizability evaluation; those with excessively high synthetic difficulty are removed, ultimately forming a large-scale molecular glue virtual library with structural diversity, synthesizability and drug-likeness.
Compounds in the library can be synthesized in only 1-2 chemical reaction steps. With MCE’s experienced chemical synthesis team, custom synthesis of different scales from milligram to kilogram can be easily achieved to meet diverse customer needs.

MCE 18 stands for Medicinal Chemistry Evolution 2018. This metric was established based on structural data of 28,161 patented lead molecules, 1,370 marketed innovative drugs, and nearly 30,000 investigational candidates from preclinical to Phase III stages across 23 major global pharmaceutical companies from 1950 to 2018. After scaffold clustering analysis, a scoring model was constructed by integrating five three dimensional scaffold characteristics, including aromatic rings (AR), non aromatic heterocycles (NAR), chiral centers (CHIRAL), spirocycles (SPIRO), and the sp³ carbon ratio in cyclic and acyclic moieties, enabling quantitative assessment of molecular scaffold novelty and three dimensional complexity.
According to the score distribution of patented molecules, the top 25% of the original patent dataset was defined as the high novelty region. MCE 18 high scoring compounds selected based on this criterion can effectively avoid scaffold patent conflicts and intellectual property risks from the source. Molecules in this range typically feature a high sp³ carbon ratio, abundant chiral centers, spirocycles, and fused heterocycles with prominent three dimensional conformations. Their spatial properties allow precise matching to complex non traditional undruggable target pockets such as PPI interfaces and allosteric sites, making them ideal structural types for early stage screening of First in class drugs.
MCE‑18 Novelty Focused drug‑Like library strictly selects molecules from the aforementioned high scoring range, containing more than 10,000 premium drug like molecules with highly diverse scaffolds and rich 3D diversity. It can be used for high throughput screening of well established targets such as kinases, GPCRs, and proteases, and is especially suitable for hit identification in allosteric modulation, protein–protein interactions, and various undruggable orphan targets, fully supporting early stage drug discovery for cutting edge innovat
