AI-ACCELERATED DRUG DISCOVERY
Available from Reaxense
This protein is integrated into the Receptor.AI ecosystem as a prospective target with high therapeutic potential. We performed a comprehensive characterization of Cytokine receptor common subunit beta including:
1. LLM-powered literature research
Our custom-tailored LLM extracted and formalized all relevant information about the protein from a large set of structured and unstructured data sources and stored it in the form of a Knowledge Graph. This comprehensive analysis allowed us to gain insight into Cytokine receptor common subunit beta therapeutic significance, existing small molecule ligands, relevant off-targets, and protein-protein interactions.

2. AI-Driven Conformational Ensemble Generation
Starting from the initial protein structure, we employed advanced AI algorithms to predict alternative functional states of Cytokine receptor common subunit beta, including large-scale conformational changes along "soft" collective coordinates. Through molecular simulations with AI-enhanced sampling and trajectory clustering, we explored the broad conformational space of the protein and identified its representative structures. Utilizing diffusion-based AI models and active learning AutoML, we generated a statistically robust ensemble of equilibrium protein conformations that capture the receptor's full dynamic behavior, providing a robust foundation for accurate structure-based drug design.

3. Binding pockets identification and characterization
We employed the AI-based pocket prediction module to discover orthosteric, allosteric, hidden, and cryptic binding pockets on the protein’s surface. Our technique integrates the LLM-driven literature search and structure-aware ensemble-based pocket detection algorithm that utilizes previously established protein dynamics. Tentative pockets are then subject to AI scoring and ranking with simultaneous detection of false positives. In the final step, the AI model assesses the druggability of each pocket enabling a comprehensive selection of the most promising pockets for further targeting.

Background:
The Cytokine receptor common subunit beta, known as CDw131 or GM-CSF/IL-3/IL-5 receptor common beta subunit, plays a pivotal role in immune response. It controls the production and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor cells into specific lineages by forming heterodimeric receptors with partners like IL3RA, IL5RA, or CSF2RA. This interaction activates various signaling pathways, including the JAK-STAT pathway, crucial for immune response and cell differentiation.
Therapeutic significance:
Linked to Pulmonary surfactant metabolism dysfunction 5, a rare lung disorder, the Cytokine receptor common subunit beta's understanding could unveil new therapeutic strategies. Its role in immune response and cell differentiation pathways highlights its potential as a target for treating this and possibly other immune-related diseases.
