Comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) which is a three-dimensional quantitative structure activity relationship (3D-QSAR) technique was performed on 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives having anti-inflammatory activity. This study was performed using 28 compounds, in which the CoMFA model was developed using a training set of 25 compounds. Three compounds (selected at randomly served as a test...

Amino acid descriptors are often used in quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis of proteins and peptides. In the present study, descriptors were used to characterize peptides binding to the human MHC allele HLA-A0201. Two sets of amino acid descriptors were chosen: 93 descriptors taken from the amino acid descriptor database AAindex and the z descriptors defined by Wold an...

The study of type III RNases constitutes an important area in molecular biology. It is known that the pac1 gene encodes a particular RNase III that shares low amino acid similarity with other genes despite having a double-stranded ribonuclease activity. Bioinformatics methods based on sequence alignment may fail when there is a low amino acidic identity percentage between query sequence and oth...

Multivariate image analysis quantitative structure-activity relationship (MIA-QSAR) study aims to obtain information from a descriptor set, which are pixels of two-dimensional molecule structures. In the QSAR protein P38 mitogen-activated (MAP) kinase compounds, genetic algorithm application for pixel selection and processing is investigated. There between structure pIC50 based on obtained. (Th...

Radical scavenging activity of anthocyanins is well known, but only a few studies have been conducted by quantum chemical approach. The adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is an effective technique for solving problems with uncertainty. The purpose of this study was to construct and evaluate quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models for predicting radical scavenging a...

A series of novel N'-((5-nitrofuran-2-yl/4-nitrophenyl) methylene) substituted hydrazides (3a-3i & 4a-4i) was synthesized, and tested for in vitro antimycobacterial activity, and their quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) of hydrazide derivatives is reported here. The results of anti-mycobacterial activity study indicated that the presence of halogen substitution at benzohydrazid...

For the first time, a set of experimentally reported [60] fullerene derivatives were subjected to the 3D-QSAR/CoMFA and CoMSIA studies. The aim of this study is to propose a series of novel [60] fullerene-based inhibitors with optimal binding affinity for the HIV-1 PR enzyme. The position of the template molecule at the cavity of HIV-1 PR was optimized and 3D QSAR models were developed. Relativ...

4D quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) and 3D pharmacophore models were built and investigated for cytotoxicity using a training set of 25 lamellarins against human hormone dependent T47D breast cancer cells. Receptor-independent (RI) 4D QSAR models were first constructed from the exploration of eight possible receptor-binding alignments for the entire training set. Since the tr...

Abstract: Background and Aim: In an effort of drug development in the area HIV, present work deals with 2D 3D QSAR thiazolidinone derivatives against HIV-RT activity as a powerful method for elucidation relationships between structure activity. Materials Methods: were performed using MLR SA kNN respectively. Models which had higher predictability generated indicated from their statistical param...
