  9. Libraries Overview TimTec libraries are characterized according to the following features that may overlap from collection to collection: • General screening collections, which would include specifically drug-like and generally diverse selections • Targeted, specialty compound collections, ActiTarg Series, template based, etc. • Nature Inspired: pure natural material or natural product derivatives and plant extracts • Different size: There are collections of 5,000cmpds, 10,000cmpds, 25,000cmpds, 50,000cmpd, or even 75-100,000cmpds. The latter would be grand ActiMol collection, our primary stock • Custom: collections selected based on suggested criteria • Formatting options: compounds in dry form or in solutions

  10. Diversity Libraries • A selection of compounds from currently available stock that represents the greatest chemical diversity for a specific number of compounds from that library • Proprietary software is used for these selections • Available Diversity Libraries: • ActiGlobe 50K • ActiProbe 25K, 10K • ApexScreen 5040 • RareCSC (under dev.) • MyriaScreen (Sigma-Aldrich) • MaxiVerse (BIOMOL)

  11. ActiGlobe-50K The grand diversity collection of 50,000 compounds has been assembled from world wide sources numbering over 2,000,000 compounds-candidates. The collection has molecules representing the chemical diversity of screening samples produced by labs and research centers throughout the world. In addition to adherence to Lipinski parameters, dozens of advanced filters have eliminated undesirable atoms, functionality and fragments creating a library that will provide exceptionally good chemical starting points for hit and ADMET optimization. Due to large file size, ActiGlobe-50K database is available on request for online download. Please call 1 302 292 8500 x 203 or e-mail at tim@timtec.net

  12. ActiProbe-10K and 25K • Screening sets of 10,000 and 25,000 compounds respectively originated from ActiGlobe-50K library. Both collections were selected through Jarvis-Patrick clustering. The overlap between ActiProbe-10K and ActiProbe-25K is about 4,500 compounds. Jarvis-Patrick clustering permits sampling of large library pools through selection of molecules that are representative of a group (cluster) within this library. • Molecular characterization is based on 2D fragment descriptors consisting of a central atom and neighboring atoms connected to it within a predefined sphere size -- bonds between central and edge atoms. Groups of molecules are based on the structural similarity of fingerprints (bit strings of these fragments), and the centroid has the highest degree of similarity to other members of a cluster. Chemically unique compounds (singletons) with low similarity to other members of the collection are also identified. Sampling libraries are created from centroid and singleton selection along with augmentation with other members from the largest groups.

  13. MyriaScreen • Superior structural diversity - Distinct drug-like properties MyriaScreen was created by combining medicinal chemistry expertise and decades of experience in compound acquisition from diverse sources. TimTec’s proprietary software was used to filter a pool of over 300,000 TimTec and Sigma-Aldrich compounds on the basis of diversity. Additional filters were set to consider MW (>225 and <600), cLogP, H-acceptor, H-donors, and rotatable bonds. Medicinal chemistry specialists refined the selection with great personal attention to remove compounds that were overly represented or not well suited for medicinal chemistry follow-up. MyriaScreen is rich in chemotypes and a valuable source of screening compounds for lead discovery. • Ready-to-use format - High purity - Efficient re-supply MyriaScreen is pre-plated for your convenience, 0.5 mg in 250 µL of DMSO per well. The compounds have an average purity > 95% with nothing below 90%. Should you require more material for follow-up, re-supply or re-synthesis is available. Although MyriaScreen is designed for use as a complete set, there are two alternative options to fit your purchasing needs. Compounds can be purchased as individual plates or cherry-picked and plated on a custom basis. • Formatting Options Available: The collection is pre-plated in 96-well plates and is available on request. There are 10,000 compounds, 0.5mg or 0.25mg per sample in DMSO solution. 0.5 mg in 250 mcL of DMSO is priced at $40,000.00  0.25mg in 125 mcL of DMSO solution is $24,500.00 0.05mg in 50 mcL of DMSO solution is $12,500.00 In pre-plated sets we have 1 and 12th columns empty.

  14. Diversity Set It is our most popular competitively priced collection of 10,000 most diverse compounds selected from TimTec stock of over 120,000 compounds. Diversity Set is a superior collection in terms of diverse selection of singletons identified within variety of chemo types in TimTec stock: 2micromol or 1mg samples size in dry form is $53,000.00 5micromol or 2mg sample size in dry form is $64,750.00 0.5mg sample size is $31,000.00 1mg samples size is $47,000.00 On your request we can dissolve compounds in DMSO. Lead time applies. • ActiProbe10K, Diversity Set, and MyriaSreen Collection do not overlap in compound selection. Diversity Set is primarily diverse selection from our stock, variety of chemotypes is above all in focus. ActiProbe10K as entire collection strictly adheres to Lipinski rule of five, drug-likeness is in focus.

  15. ApexScreen 5040 • ApexScreen is a collection of 5,040 compounds that were selected to represent the diversity of TimTec stock of over 120,000 compounds in a smaller format as opposed to larger general screening collections. ApexScreen in a variety of formatting options tailored to customer requirements is a perfect collection to jump-start any screening project. • ApexScreen was created with assistance of TimTec's Diversity Analysis Software that allows the assembly of libraries with maximized chemical diversity from databases of compounds that are currently available from TimTecUS and/or overseas stock. Diversity libraries can be further filtered to include molecules that fall within designated MW, cLogP and Lipinski Rule parameters. TimTec can also provide a selection of compounds from its databases which will include only those compounds that will contribute to the diversity of an existing customer library. • In addition to diverse selection of compounds that represent variety of chemotypes in TimTec general stock collection, ApexScreen includes a number of pure natural compounds from TimTec Natural Product Library to suit current trends in screening. • ApexScreen is a perfect collection for starting any screening project and a valuable addition to any existing compound library: • Various formatting option in terms of sample size or concentration are available: 5040 compounds: 0.5mg dry form, $16,800.00, Pre-plated in 96 well plates with removable tubes, rows 1&12th are empty. 0.25mg in DMSO, $11,500.00 0.1mg in DMSO, $8,600.00

  16. Targeted Libraries • Molecules with molecular scaffolds found in agents reported in the technical/patent literature with the following biological properties: • Kinase modulation • GPCR binding • Protease inhibition • K-Channel Modulation • Anti-Infectives

  17. H. Waldmann et al., J. Med. Chem., 46, 2917 (2003). NP Scaffold for a Series of Inhibitors in the Kinase Family An example: Comprising Targeted Library: ActiTarg-Series A compound library developed around nakijiquinones, natural inhibitors of the receptor tyrosine kinase called Her-2/Neu, produced analogs that inhibit two other receptor tyrosine kinases, VEGFR-3 and Tie-2.

  18. ActiTarg Series Targeted Libraries • Our Kinase library, ActiTarg-K, includes over 6,600 drug-like compounds with low molecular weight that have the ability to inhibit protein kinases. This diverse kinase collection includes samples-analogs with chemical lattices that match the chemical lattices found in compounds with already tested kinase activities, which were reported in scientific literature. You can see the table of kinase and lattice types at: http://www.timtec.net/actitarg-k-kinase-modulators.html • GPCR ligands library, ActiTarg-G, currently has 2900 compounds. These agents possess chemical lattices present in compound types reported in the patent or chemical literature to have various kinase inhibitory activities, as described on our web site: http://www.timtec.net/actitarg-g-gpcr-ligands.html • To meet the interest and needs of investigators who are trying to identify low molecular weight, drug-like molecules with the ability to inhibit various proteases, TimTec has assembled a library of compounds with potential protease inhibitory activity, ActiTarg-P. These are about 2,000 compounds in the collection: http://www.timtec.net/actitarg-p-protease-inhibitors.html • Potassium Channel Modulators, over 800 cmpds: http://www.timtec.net/potassium-channel-modulators.html

  19. ActiTarg-S, Serine Proteinase Inhibitors Library • Serine Proteinase Inhibitors Library collection includes analogs to a group of serine proteinase inhibitors (serpins) that are known to be similar in amino acid sequence and mechanism of inhibition, yet differentiate in their specificity toward proteolytic enzymes as it is reported in technical literature. • For instance, the groups of known serpins among others include: alpha 1-antitrypsin, angiotensinogen, ovalbumin, antiplasmin, alpha 1-antichymotrypsin, thyroxine-binding protein, complement 1 inactivators, antithrombin III, heparin cofactor II, plasminogen inactivators, gene Y protein, placental plasminogen activator inhibitor. • TimTec collection currently includes about 450 close analogs to known serpins. Entire collection in 1mg is $28.00 per compound. We may also select top diversity compounds and arrange them into plates: 80 compounds in 0.5mg size plated in 96-well plates with removable tubes, columns 1 & 12 left empty: 3 plates, 240cmpds is $4,560.00 4 plates, 320cmpds is $5,920.00 5 plates, 400cmpds is $7,300.00
