In order to identify in silico new potent PDE 10A inhibitors, molecular docking approach was used. In this context, the compound S235 was predicted to exhibit a high potential PDE 10A inhibitory activity among 369 compounds tested. The predicted binding energy of this compound was improved from -10.28 to -13.80 Kcal/mol by structural replacements of its chemical grouping. Finally, the proposed compound was predicted to have good ADMET properties.}, journal = {Current Research in Bioinformatics}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
