β-secretase inhibitors for Alzheimer’s disease: identification using pharmacoinformatics

In this study we searched for potential β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme1 (BACE1) inhibitors using pharmacoinformatics. A large dataset containing 7155 known BACE1 inhibitors was evaluated for pharmacophore model generation. The final model (R = 0.950, RMSD = 1.094, Q
