Identification, design and bio-evaluation of novel Hsp90 inhibitors by ligand-based virtual screening.

Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), whose inhibitors have shown promising activity in clinical trials, is an attractive anticancer target. In this work, we first explored the significant pharmacophore features needed for Hsp90 inhibitors by generating a 3D-QSAR pharmacophore model. It was then used to vi...
