“…To investigate these questions, we sought compounds with effects on SERT akin to ibogaine but acting with greater selectivity. Structure-based docking of large chemical libraries has driven discovery of novel compounds that have high affinity and selectivity for several families of biological targets (Alon et al, 2021;Ballante et al, 2021;Bender et al, 2021;Gabrielsen et al, 2012;Gabrielsen et al, 2013;Gunera et al, 2020;Kampen et al, 2021;Katritch et al, 2012;Kolb et al, 2009a;Kolb and Irwin, 2009;Kufareva et al, 2012;Kufareva et al, 2017;Kufareva et al, 2014;Manglik et al, 2016;Ngo et al, 2016;Orry et al, 2006;Ortiz Zacarías et al, 2021;Patel et al, 2020;Rognan, 2012;2017;Roth et al, 2017;Sadybekov et al, 2020;Scharf et al, 2019;Stauch et al, 2019;Stein et al, 2020;Uprety et al, 2021;Weiss et al, 2013;Wisler et al, 2018), though rarely transporters. We used the cryo-EM structure of SERT complexed with ibogaine in an inward-open conformation (Coleman et al, 2019) (PDB ID: 6DZZ) to computationally dock a library of 200 million make-on-demand molecules (Alon et al, 2021;Lyu et al, 2019;Sadybekov et al, 2022;Stein et al, 2020).…”
