Synthetic organic
Comment: Tapinarof (GSK2894512) is an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) agonist [3]. It is a naturally occurring polyphenol derived from bacteria that exist symbiotically with entomopathogenic nematodes. AhR was identified as the primary molecular target based on phenotypic screening using the DiscoveRx BioMAP Diversity Plus System and confirmed using AhR knockout mice. Tapinarof was the first steroid-free topical drug in this class to be approved as a plaque psoriasis medication.
Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |
