Unlike highly conserved orthosteric sites, allosteric sites exhibit low conservation, high hydrophobicity, weak polarity, confined geometry, and dynamic cryptic properties. Rather than rigid keyhole-like cavities, they typically appear as flexible grooves, subunit interface clefts, or shallow depressions formed by protein conformational changes.
Based on the dynamic, hydrophobic, and elongated nature of allosteric pockets, MCE has carried out targeted fragment modification and screening under strict physicochemical criteria: MW 120–280 Da, HBD ≤ 2, HBA ≤ 3, PSA 30–80 Ų, rotatable bonds ≤ 2, cLogP 1–3.5. High 3D diversity was further ensured by PMI analysis, yielding fragments with excellent shape complementarity to allosteric pockets.
This library contains 1,800 structurally diverse, drug-like fragments, this library supports allosteric drug development and pocket optimization. It significantly improves screening hit rates and enables efficient, precise early-stage R&D of allosteric drugs.
Natural products are small molecular compounds that occur in nature and come from any organism, including primary and secondary metabolites. Natural products have potential biological activity and can be used as lead compounds for drug discovery. Nature has been a source of medicines for thousands of years, and a large number of drugs have been isolated from nature, many based on their use in traditional medicine. With the development of compound targets, there is an increasing need to screen for compound diversity. Through ongoing research into natural biodiversity, much of which remains to be exploited, natural products will play a key role in meeting this demand. The Lipinski rule of 5 is used to describe the drug-like properties of a molecule, molecules that adhere to the rule of 5 have higher drug potential. Based on MCE natural product library, MCE selects the molecules that obey the rule of 5, which makes the efficiency of drug screening higher.
MCE designs a unique collection of 2,818 RO5 drug-like natural products, which is an important tool for drug discovery.
Linkers, as key structural units in PROTAC molecules that connect the two functional ends, not only determine the overall molecular conformation and spatial compatibility but also directly influence the stability of the ternary complex, as well as cellular permeability and degradation efficiency. In recent years, with the widespread application of click chemistry in medicinal chemistry, the incorporation of bioorthogonal reactive groups such as azides (-N3) into PROTAC linker design has become an emerging research focus, providing an important tool for modular assembly and rapid structural optimization.
The MCE Azide PROTAC Linker Library contains 0 linkers specifically designed for targeted protein degradation molecule design and optimization. These linkers serve as efficient “click handles,” enabling rapid and highly selective covalent coupling with alkyne reaction partners, thereby facilitating modular assembly and structural diversification of PROTAC molecules. In drug development, this design not only improves the efficiency of molecular construction but also significantly accelerates the screening and optimization of lead compounds. Meanwhile, by tuning linker properties such as length, flexibility, and polarity, the ability to form ternary complexes and degradation activity can be optimized.
From target identification to clinical research, traditional drug discovery and development is a time-consuming and costly process, which also bears high risk. Compared with traditional drug discovery, drug repositioning or repurposing, also known as old drugs for new uses can greatly shorten the development cycle and reduce development cost, which has become a new trend of drug development. After undergoing clinical trials, approved drugs have identified bioactivities, good pharmacokinetic characteristics and safety, which can greatly improve the success rate of drug discovery. A number of successes have been achieved, such as metformin for type 2 diabetes and thalidomide for leprosy and multiple myeloma, etc.
MCE provides a unique collection of 1,534 China NMPA (National Medical Products Administration) approved compounds, which have undergone extensive preclinical and clinical studies and have well-characterized bioactivities, safety and bioavailability properties. MCE NMPA-Approved Drug Library is a good tool for drug repurposing which could dramatically accelerate drug development.
