Target summary

Promising target candidate with multiple supporting evidence streams.

Automated synthesis of the evidence currently loaded. Review the underlying records before prioritizing this protein.

Terms and data sources used on this page

PDB: experimentally determined structures from the Protein Data Bank. These are the strongest structural evidence, but may cover only part of the protein.

AlphaFold DB model: a precomputed predicted structure downloaded from AlphaFold Database/UniProt, not an experiment performed here.

ColabFold model: a predicted structure generated for this workspace; interpret it with coverage and confidence.

pLDDT: confidence score for predicted structures. High values support local geometry; low values mean the region should not drive pocket interpretation.

FPocket / P2Rank: software tools that predict possible ligand-binding pockets on a 3D structure. They are useful screening signals, not experimental validation.

Druggability: a pocket-based estimate of whether a small molecule could bind productively. It does not mean a drug already exists.

PDB ligand: a compound observed in an experimental structure. Direct same-protein records are stronger than homolog-transferred records.

ChEMBL: a public database of measured compound bioactivity. Direct entries are stronger than entries transferred from similar proteins.

ZINC: a purchasable-compound database. Here it marks proposed candidates from chemical similarity, not measured binders.

LigQ / LigQ_2: an internal Target pipeline step that gathers PDB, ChEMBL, and ZINC ligand evidence for each protein.

Off-target: sequence similarity to proteins we prefer not to hit, such as human proteins or beneficial gut microbiome proteins.

DEG: Database of Essential Genes. A match suggests the protein resembles genes known to be essential in other organisms.

Roary / CoreCruncher: pan-genome tools used to decide whether a gene is core across analyzed strains or accessory/strain-specific.

EC / GO: functional annotations: EC describes enzyme reactions; GO describes biological process, molecular function, or cellular component.

KEGG pathway: a curated metabolic route label used here to group reactions imported from the metabolic model.

Chokepoint: a metabolic reaction that is the only producer or consumer of a metabolite in the imported model.

Binding-site evidence

AlphaFold DB / UniProt model

P2Rank's binding-site probability is the primary druggability signal shown across the app; FPocket's druggability score is shown alongside it for comparison. Both estimate small-molecule pocket quality after applying the curated structure priority — neither is experimental binding evidence. The 3D viewer may show a different loaded structure, so visible pockets can differ.

Pocket score High Medium Low
How colors and pocket overlays are used
Uniform protein color marks the displayed model as a single molecular object.
Experimental PDB structures may be colored by chain to distinguish subunits or copies present in the file.
Pocket colors and alpha spheres are evidence overlays for predicted binding cavities; they are not alternative protein chains.
'Alpha spheres' is FPocket's own cavity-shape geometry, imported when available and aligned with the loaded structure.
'Pocket atoms'/'Predicted site atoms' show the pocket's residue atoms instead: P2Rank reports residues rather than alpha spheres, and FPocket falls back to this when alpha-sphere geometry is unavailable or doesn't align.
'No pocket geometry' means neither alpha spheres nor residue-position data could be found for that pocket; the layer just highlights the same residues as 'Nearby residues'.
