A Novel Subshape Molecular Descriptor

Journal of Chemical Information and Computer Sciences, 2003
Molecules with similar shapes and features often have similar biological activity. Several computational approaches search chemical databases for new leads or templates based on overall molecular shape similarity. However, active molecules often present critical subshapes that are required for binding, which may be missed by comparing overall shape ...

Molecular Descriptors

2009
In the last decades, several scientific researches have been focused on studying how to encompass and convert – by a theoretical pathway – the information encoded in the molecular structure into one or more numbers used to establish quantitative relationships between structures and properties, biological activities, or other experimental properties ...

Distance-Related Molecular Descriptors [PDF]

open access: possibleInternet electronic journal of molecular design, 2008
A brief review of various molecular descriptors based on graph– theoretical distances is presented with a special emphasis on those distance– descriptors in whose development István Lukovits has been involved.

Generalized molecular descriptors

Journal of Mathematical Chemistry, 1991
We review algebraic characterizations of molecular structures and in particular consider different matrices associated with a molecule as a source of novel graph invariants for use in structure-property and structure-activity studies. Such matrices can be classified as structure-explicit, structure-cryptic, and structure-implicit corresponding to a ...

Quantum Molecular Similarity. 3. QTMS Descriptors

Journal of Chemical Information and Computer Sciences, 2001
Building on the ideas of a previous paper [part 1, J. Phys. Chem. A 1999, 103, 2883] we present a new molecular similarity method based on the topology of the electron density. This method is directly applicable to QSARs and is called quantum topological molecular similarity (QTMS). It has been tested for five sets of carboxylic systems including para-

Molecular Shape Descriptors

1983
This section reviews the molecular shape descriptors developed by Amoore, Allinger, Simon et al. and Testa and Purcell. The illustrative examples discussed refer to the odour similarity and cardiotoxic aglycones. One has stressed the methods based on the reference structure because, correctly formulated, these methods seem to offer promising ...

How Far Are Molecular Connectivity Descriptors from IS Molecular Pseudoconnectivity Descriptors?

Journal of Chemical Information and Computer Sciences, 2001
A comparison of the characteristics of the molecular connectivity and intrinsic-state pseudoconnectivity indices in modeling different activities and properties of different classes of compounds is performed. Two different activities of chlorofluorocarbons, an activity of 2-Br-2-phenetylamines, an activity of benzimidazoles, and the boiling points of ...

Overall Molecular Descriptors. 3. Overall Zagreb Indices

SAR and QSAR in Environmental Research, 2001
This paper develops further the concept of overall characterization of molecular topology, which is based on calculation of a given graph-invariant for all subgraphs of molecular graph. The new approach defines a cumulative topological descriptor, and an ordered series of terms (eth-order descriptor), which present the sum of the graph-invariant values

Molecular Design and QSARs/QSPRs with Molecular Descriptors Family

Current Computer Aided-Drug Design, 2013
The aim of the present paper is to present the methodology of the molecular descriptors family (MDF) as an integrative tool in molecular modeling and its abilities as a multivariate QSAR/QSPR modeling tool. An algorithm for extracting useful information from the topological and geometrical representation of chemical compounds was developed and ...

Novel Shape Descriptors for Molecular Graphs

Journal of Chemical Information and Computer Sciences, 2001
We report on novel graph theoretical indices which are sensitive to the shapes of molecular graphs. In contrast to the Kier's kappa shape indices which were based on a comparison of a molecular graph with graphs representing the extreme shapes, the linear graph and the "star" graph, the new shape indices are obtained by considering for all atoms the ...
