Title:

Fragment-based discovery and optimization of BACE1 inhibitors.

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2010 Sep 1;20(17):5329-33. Epub 2010 Jun 27.

Abstract:

A novel series of 2-aminobenzimidazole inhibitors of BACE1 has been discovered using fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD) techniques. The rapid optimization of these inhibitors using structure-guided medicinal chemistry is discussed.
