Histone lysine-specific demethylase (LSD1) is involved in a wide range of epigenetic processes and plays important roles in gene silencing DNA transcription DNA replication DNA repair and heterochromatin formation. Its active site shows a resemblance to those of 2 homologous enzymes monamine oxidase A and B (MAO-A and MAO-B.) In the present work starting from suitable scaffolds and generating thousands of structures from them 10 potential inhibitors were obtained with structural and physicochemical ...
