(NASDAQ: NXTS) ("Nexentis" or the "Company"), a drug discovery company that also invests in solar energy assets based on the RTB (Ready to Build) business model, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, MitoCareX Bio Ltd. ("MitoCareX"), today reported that it has completed a broad structural analysis of human SLC (Solute Carrier) transport proteins as part of its ongoing efforts to expand and refine its small-molecule discovery capabilities. This work builds on MITOLINE®, MitoCareX’s proprietary sequence analysis and alignment algorithm, which to date has been used to prepare mitochondrial SLC25 carrier proteins for reliable 3D modeling in support of structure-based drug discovery in hard-to-treat cancers and inflammatory metabolic diseases. Based on this new analysis, MitoCareX has identified additional SLC proteins outside the SLC25 family, whose amino acid sequences appear compatible with the MITOLINE® ruleset, suggesting that these transporters may also be amenable to MITOLINE-enabled structural modeling. As a next step, the company intends to explore the use of MITOLINE®-derived 3D models as part of its virtual screening workflows for the selected non-mitochondrial SLC targets, with the goal of potentially expanding its small-molecule discovery efforts into additional disease-relevant transport proteins. By building on the same discovery engine already used for its mitochondrial SLC25 program, MitoCareX aims to increase the range of clinically important transporters it can address while maintaining a focused, computationally driven approach to generating novel small-molecule candidates. "We are encouraged by MitoCareX’s continued momentum, following the recent announcement of the optimized hit molecule and now with the successful completion of this broad structural analysis of additional SLC transport proteins," said David Palach, CEO of Nexentis. "These achievements highlight the strength and versatility of our MITOLINE® platform and MitoCareX’s ability to identify additional transporters that can potentially benefit from MITOLINE-enabled 3D modeling in the future. We believe that MitoCareX possesses the scientific expertise and technological capabilities to deliver meaningful breakthroughs in the treatment of hard-to-treat cancers and inflammatory metabolic diseases."
