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 E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRIM71 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 E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRIM71 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 E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRIM71, 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:
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRIM71, also known as Protein lin-41 homolog and Tripartite motif-containing protein 71, plays a pivotal role in embryonic stem cells proliferation and maintenance. It cooperates with microRNAs machinery, promoting post-transcriptional repression of transcripts such as CDKN1A and facilitating G1-S transition for rapid self-renewal. TRIM71 is essential in early neural development, maintaining neural progenitor cell proliferation and preventing premature differentiation.
Therapeutic significance:
TRIM71's involvement in congenital hydrocephalus, specifically Hydrocephalus, congenital, 4, underscores its therapeutic potential. Understanding TRIM71's mechanisms could lead to innovative treatments for this and related neurodevelopmental disorders, offering hope for affected individuals.
