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.

Main supporting evidence

Independent pocket support: FPocket + P2Rank Both predictors report a high-scoring binding site (FPocket 0.82, P2Rank 0.79). Use the 3D pocket comparison to verify whether they identify the same site. Core gene across strains Marked as conserved by both pan-genome tools: Roary and CoreCruncher. Strong predicted binding pocket FPocket selected-pocket score 0.82. This is a computational pocket signal, not binding validation. Second pocket predictor agrees P2Rank predicted binding-site probability 0.79. Review the complete evidence below

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.

Prioritization evidence

Selectivity, essentiality, structural confidence, conservation, and predicted binding-site evidence.

Off-target risk

Human off-target: Hit
Human identity (%): 53.125 Lower values reduce human off-target concern.
Human E-value: 0.0
Gut microbiome similarity: 9.5% of screened genomes Lower prevalence suggests narrower overlap with the screened gut microbiome.

Essentiality

Essential (DEG): Y
DEG identity (%): 62.946 Higher values support similarity to known essential genes.
DEG E-value: 0.0 Smaller values mean stronger essential-gene similarity.

Localization

Localization: Cytoplasmic

Structure confidence

ColabFold pLDDT: 94.0 0-100 confidence; >70 supports local structural interpretation.

Binding-site evidence

AlphaFold DB / UniProt model

The selected pocket score is the FPocket value used for ranking after applying the curated structure priority. It estimates small-molecule pocket quality; it is not experimental binding evidence. The 3D viewer may show a different loaded structure, so visible pockets can differ.

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'.
