872 Results for "Noncompetitive modulation" in MCE Product Catalog:
POI (Protein of Interest) refers to the target protein, namely the disease-causing protein or key functional protein that undergoes degradation or functional modulation in molecular glue-mediated processes. The Molecular Glue POI Library consists of a series of fragments that can specifically bind to different types of POIs. As key components of molecular glues, these ligands form stable interactions with target proteins, laying the foundation for molecular glues to induce the interaction between POIs and E3 ubiquitin ligases. The covered POIs include various types such as cancer-associated GSPT1, androgen receptors, and abnormally aggregated proteins linked to neurodegenerative diseases.
This fragment library can be applied to the screening and optimization of targeted protein degraders. By screening ligands with high affinity and strong selectivity for specific POIs from the library, core structures can be identified to develop novel molecular glues. For instance, optimization of ligands targeting GSPT1 has yielded molecular glue degraders with enhanced degradation activity. Since many POIs are difficult to drug due to the lack of traditional small-molecule binding pockets, some ligands in the POI Ligand Library can modulate such POIs by inducing protein-protein interactions, thereby further expanding the scope of drug discovery for undruggable targets.
MCE has compiled a POI Fragment Library comprising thousands of POI fragments with molecular weights ranging from 150 to 400. This compound library can be widely applied in Molecular Glue research and development.

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
Oxygen homeostasis regulation is the most fundamental cellular process for adjusting physiological oxygen variations, and its irregularity leads to various human diseases, including cancer. Hypoxia is closely associated with cancer development, and hypoxia/oxygen-sensing signaling plays critical roles in the modulation of cancer progression.
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is a transcription factor that functions as a master regulator of oxygen homeostasis. A variety of HF-1 target genes have been identified thus far which encode proteins that play key roles in critical developmental and physiological processes including angiogenesis/vascular remodeling, erythropoiesis, glucose transport, glycolysis, iron transport, and cell proliferation/survival.
HIF-1 is a heterodimeric transcription factor consisting of a constitutively expressed β-subunit and an oxygen-regulated α-subunit. The unique feature of HIF-1 is the regulation of HIF-1α expression and activity based upon the cellular O2 concentration. Under normoxic conditions, hydroxylation of HIF-1α on these different proline residues is essential for HIF proteolytic degradation by promoting interaction with the von Hippel-Lindau tumor-suppressor protein (pVHL) through hydrogen bonding to the hydroxyproline-binding pocket in the pVHL β-domain. As oxygen levels decrease, hydroxylation of HIF decreases; HIF-1α then no longer binds pVHL, and becomes stabilized, allowing more of the protein to translocate to the cell’s nucleus, where it acts as a transcription factor, upregulating (often within minutes) the production of proteins that stimulate blood perfusion in tissues and thus tissue oxygenation.
MCE offers a unique collection of 4,317 oxygen sensing related compounds targeting HIF/HIF Prolyl-Hydroxylase, MAPK/ERK, PI3K/AKT signaling pathways, etc. MCE Oxygen Sensing Compound Library is a useful tool to study hypoxia, oxidative stress and discover new anti-cancer drugs.
