Identification and optimisation of small molecule inhibitors of APP1 as novel therapeutics.
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Leeds
Department Name: Sch of Chemistry
Abstract
The objective of this proposal will be to identify potent, soluble and cell permeable chemical tools as inhibitors of APP with potential to further validate the mechanism of inhibition and for further development into a therapeutic drug. Our strategy is to exploit the high-resolution structure of APP in a computational rational hit validation exercise to develop potent and cell permeable inhibitors. The aim will be to generate lead-like chemical probes that can be further developed into therapeutic agents.
