Abstract excerpt
Leucine rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) has been reported in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Inhibition of LRRK2 kinase activity is a therapeutic approach that may provide new treatments for PD. In this study, novel LRRK2 inhibitors were identified by performing a docking-based virtual screening (VS). Due to the absence of a crystal structure of LRRK2, homology modeling was adopted to model human LRRK2...
