Based on the public-alignment of pteridine, 3D-QSAR(Three-Dimensional Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship) models of pteridine analogues as iNOS inhibitors were established by the 3D-QSAR protocol of Discovery Studio 3.0. Pteridine molecules divided in different groups obtained four approximate models, indicating good stability of such models, in which A3 is preferable(q2 = 0.672, r2 = 0.996, rpred2 . = 0.888, q2 denotes the cross-validation coefficient, r2 denotes the non-cross-validation coefficient).
