Owing to the widespread transmission and frequent mutation of viral diseases, as well as the continuous emergence of new viruses and drug-resistant strains, antiviral drug development is facing increasingly stringent requirements. Antiviral compound libraries serve as important tools for drug screening, mechanism research and development, enabling the discovery and investigation of various antiviral drugs.
These compounds act through diverse antiviral mechanisms, targeting key steps in viral replication, assembly and invasion. They exert antiviral effects by inhibiting viral nucleic acid synthesis, blocking viral protein processing, and preventing viral binding to host cells. This library covers various types of antiviral compounds, including nucleosides, non-nucleosides, protease inhibitors and integrase inhibitors. It supports research on influenza virus, herpes virus, hepatitis virus, emerging respiratory viruses and other pathogens, and enables high-throughput screening of novel antiviral candidates to rapidly identify potential active compounds against diverse viruses. It also facilitates mechanistic studies to elucidate drug-target interactions and viral resistance mechanisms, and supports the screening of effective compounds against mutant strains for research on viral variation and drug resistance.
This antiviral library consists of 6,804 compounds with lead-like physicochemical properties. The core sources of the compounds include analogs of known antiviral molecues with a similarity score ≥ 0.6. MCE has collected more than 1450 antiviral molecules. As a small-molecule collection with both activity potential and structural modifiability, it provides strong support for antiviral drug research and development.
Spirocyclic compounds, with rigid 3D structures, high Fsp³ and strong conformational restriction, are highly privileged scaffolds in small-molecule drug screening. They overcome drawbacks of planar aromatic compounds such as poor solubility, high off-target risks and weak druggability. Their orthogonal bicyclic geometry fits well into protein pockets, improving target affinity, subtype selectivity, metabolic stability and membrane permeability, making them ideal for hit identification against kinases, GPCRs, PPIs and other targets.
Spirocyclic scaffolds have been widely applied in oncology, antivirals, hypertension and CNS diseases, leading to many approved drugs and clinical candidates. SAR studies show that spiro-atom chirality, ring size and heteroatom substitution dominate bioactivity and selectivity, with the scaffold mainly serving as a conformational anchor. Azaspirocycles, spirooxindoles and spirosteranes target GPCRs, kinases, MDM2-p53 and PPIs. Approved drugs including irbesartan, spironolactone and rolapitant confirm their druggability, while revumenib and SAR405838 show promise against undruggable targets.
The MCE Spirocyclic Druglike Library contains over 1,000 diverse, stereospecific molecules selected by Lipinski’s rules. It covers privileged cores such as azaspirocycles, oxaspirocycles and spirooxindoles. These molecules bear rich chiral centers and distinct 3D orientations, reducing non-specific binding and enhancing screening efficiency. Featuring novel scaffolds, the library offers a highly innovative starting point for drug discovery.
