At Nutralytics™, we believe that your product’s success begins with a deep understanding of how it delivers health benefits. That’s why we developed Nutraverse™ — an AI-powered platform designed to identify natural bioactives and uncover their therapeutic potential.
We are excited to announce the launch of our first Antagonist prediction model for the platform. Our model quantifies the antagonist potential of natural products by accurately predicting their IC50 values across a range of novel human targets. These early insights into your product’s mechanisms of action will empower your team to innovate smarter, faster, and more cost-effectively.
What Are Antagonists and Why Does Their IC50 Matter?
Antagonists are compounds that block or inhibit the activity of targets like enzymes or receptors to deliver health benefits. For example, antihistamines work by blocking histamine receptors.
IC50 measures an antagonist’s potency — the concentration needed to inhibit 50% of a target’s activity. Traditionally, determining IC50 is costly and time-consuming. Nutraverse™ changes this by predicting both targets and IC50 values directly from a compound’s structure, reducing your costs and accelerating your R&D.
How Does It Work?
- Data-Driven Accuracy: Trained on 500,000+ verified data points for 1,351 human protein targets.
- Proven Performance: Delivers reliable predictions with an R² of 0.77 and MSE of 0.18.
“Our IC50 model empowers your team to prioritize the best candidates, streamlining R&D from day one.” – Dr. John Ingram, CEO of Nutralytics
