Molecular modelling has been proved to accelerate and guide drug design by providing an understanding about biomolecular system at the atomic level. A molecular modelling application involving two virtual screening methods to facilitate the drug design for finding Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors was carried out in this study. There are two virtual screening methods were presented in this study which are the hierarchircal and fragment based virtual screening. Hierarchircal virtual screening (HVS) method involved a shape similarity screening that combined with molecular docking calculation and visual inspection allowed the identification of 1, 2, 4-triazolylthioethanone as a novel class of AChE inhibitors. In the first step of HVS, shape similarity screening was used to find compounds that having similar shape to donepezil.
