Beta amyloid peptide is widely studied due to its association with Alzheimer disease (AD). Various study reported that the accumulation of beta amyloid in brain cells leads to Alzheimer disease. Hence, Beta amyloid peptide could be a potential target of
anti-AD therapy. Hence, it is of interest to develop potent inhibitors for Beta amyloid peptide in the context of Alzheimer disease (AD). We report the binding features of Ascorbic acid, Cysteine, Dithioerythriol, Dithiothreitol, Malic acid and α-Tocopherol
with beta amyloid having binding energy values of -6.7, -6.5, -6.0, -6.5, -6.7 and - 7.0 kcal/mol respectively. The molecular docking of top-scoring compounds with beta amyloid suggests that amino acids such as ASP23, GLU22, Phe19, are crucial in binding.
Molecular dynamics simulation study showed steady-state interaction of compounds with beta amyloid for further consideration.
