GtoPdb Ligand ID: 14001

Synonyms: IMX942 | SGX942
Compound class: Peptide
Comment: Dusquetide is a first-in-class innate defense regulator (IDR) that modulates the innate human immune response by binding to sequestosome 1 (p62) [1]. It is effective in the treatment of bacterial infections, acting by modulating the inflammatory response and improving bacterial clearance, rather than having direct antibacterial activity [1].

2D Structure

An image of the ligand's 2D structure. For small molecules with SMILES these are drawn using the NCI/CADD Chemical Identifier Resolver. Click on the image to access the chemical structure search tool with the ligand pre-loaded in the structure editor. For other types of ligands, e.g. longer nucleotides and peptides, a manually drawn representation of the molecule may be provided.

SMILES / InChI / InChIKey

SMILES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry Specification) A specification for unambiguously describing the structure of chemical molecules using short ASCII strings. Canonical SMILES specify a unique representation of the 2D structure without chiral or isotopic specifications. Isomeric SMILES include chiral specification and isotopes.

Standard InChI (IUPAC International Chemical Identifier) and InChIKey InChI is a non-proprietary, standard, textual identifier for chemical substances designed to facilitate linking of information and database searching. An InChIKey is a simplified version of a full InChI, designed for easier web searching.

Bioactivity Comments
Dusquetide has no intrinsic antibacterial activity but acts by boosting the host innate immunity response to infection, resulting in increased bacterial clearance [1].
