The scientists, and the researchers around the globe generate tremendous amount of information everyday; for instance, so far more than 74 million molecules are registered in Chemical Abstract Services. According to a recent study, at present we have around 1060 molecules, which are classified as new drug-like molecules. The library of such molecules is now considered as ‘dark chemical space’ or ‘dark chemistry.’ Now, in order to explore such hidden molecules scientifically, a good number of live and updated databases (protein, cell, tissues, structure, drugs, etc.) are available today. The synchronization of the three different sciences: ‘genomics’, proteomics and ‘in-silico simulation’ will revolutionize the process of drug discovery. The screening of a sizable number of drugs like molecules is a challenge and it must be treated in an efficient manner. Virtual screening (VS) is an important computational tool in the drug discovery process; however, experimental verification of the drugs also equally important for the drug development process. The quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis is one of the machine learning technique, which is extensively used in VS techniques. QSAR is well-known for its high and fast throughput screening with a satisfactory hit rate. The QSAR model building involves (i) chemo-genomics data collection from a database or literature (ii) Calculation of right descriptors from molecular representation (iii) establishing a relationship (model) between biological activity and the selected descriptors (iv) application of QSAR model to predict the biological property for the molecules. All the hits obtained by the VS technique needs to be experimentally verified. The present mini-review highlights: the web-based machine learning tools, the role of QSAR in VS techniques, successful applications of QSAR based VS leading to the drug discovery and advantages and challenges of QSAR.

The Wiener number [Formula: see text] of a graph [Formula: see text] was introduced by Harold Wiener in connection with the modeling of various physic-chemical, biological and pharmacological properties of organic molecules in chemistry. Milan Randić introduced a modification of the Wiener index for trees (acyclic graphs), and it is known as the hyper-Wiener index. Then Klein et al. generalized Randić’s definition for all connected (cyclic) graphs, as a generalization of the Wiener index, denoted by [Formula: see text] and defined as [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we establish some upper and lower bounds for [Formula: see text], in terms of other graph-theoretic parameters. Moreover, we compute hyper-Wiener number of some classes of graphs.

Dengue fever is a viral infection spread by the female mosquito Aedes aegypti. It is a virus spread by mosquitoes found all over the tropics with risk levels varying depending on rainfall, relative humidity, temperature and urbanization. There are no specific medications that can be used to treat the condition. The development of possible bioactive ligands to combat Dengue fever before it becomes a pandemic is a global priority. Few studies on building three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D QSAR) models for anti-dengue agents have been reported. Thus, we aimed at building a statistically validated atom-based 3D-QSAR model using bioactive ligands reported to possess significant anti-dengue properties. In this study, the Schrodinger PhaseTM atom-based 3D QSAR model was developed and was validated using known anti-dengue properties as ligand data. This model was also tested to see if there was a link between structural characteristics and anti-dengue activity of a series of 3-acyl-indole derivatives. The established 3D QSAR model has strong predictive capacity and is statistically significant [Model: R2 Training Set = 0.93, Q2 (R2 Test Set) = 0.72]. In addition, the pharmacophore characteristics essential for the reported anti-dengue properties were explored using combined effects contour maps (coloured contour maps: blue: positive potential and red: negative potential) of the model. In the pathway of anti-dengue drug development, the model could be included as a virtual screening method to predict novel hits.

Histone Deacetylase 1

Objective: Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have four essential pharmacophores as cap group, connecting unit, a linker moiety and zinc binding group for their anticancer and histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition activity. On the basis of this fact, the objective of this research was to evaluate the exact role of pyrazole nucleus as connecting unit and its role in the development of newer HDACi.Methods: Ligand and structure-based computer-aided drug design strategies such as pharmacophore and atom based 3D QSAR modelling, molecular docking and energetic based pharmacophore mapping have been frequently applied to design newer analogs in a precise manner. Herein, we have applied these combinatorial approaches to develop the structure-activity correlation among novel pyrazole-based derivatives.Results: the Pharmacophore-based 3D-QSAR model was developed employing Phase module and e-pharmacophore on compound 1. This 3D-QSAR model provides fruitful information regarding favourable and unfavourable substitution on pyrazole-based analogs for HDAC1 inhibition activity. Molecular docking studies indicated that all the pyrazole derivatives bind with HDAC1 proteins and showed critical hydrophobic interaction with 5ICN and 4BKX HDAC1 proteins.Conclusion: The outcome of the present research work clearly indicated that pyrazole nucleus added an essential hydrophobic feature in cap group and could be employed to design the ligand molecules more accurately.

<div><div><div><p>We present a multitask, physics-infused deep learning model to accurately and efficiently predict refractive indices (RIs) of organic molecules, and we apply it to a library of 1.5 million compounds. We show that it outperforms earlier machine learning models by a significant margin, and that incorporating known physics into data-derived models provides valuable guardrails. Using a transfer learning approach, we augment the model to reproduce results consistent with higher-level computational chemistry training data, but with a considerably reduced number of corresponding calculations. Prediction errors of machine learning models are typically smallest for commonly observed target property values, consistent with the distribution of the training data. However, since our goal is to identify candidates with unusually large RI values, we propose a strategy to boost the performance of our model in the remoter areas of the RI distribution: We bias the model with respect to the under-represented classes of molecules that have values in the high-RI regime. By adopting a metric popular in web search engines, we evaluate our effectiveness in ranking top candidates. We confirm that the models developed in this study can reliably predict the RIs of the top 1,000 compounds, and are thus able to capture their ranking. We believe that this is the first study to develop a data-derived model that ensures the reliability of RI predictions by model augmentation in the extrapolation region on such a large scale. These results underscore the tremendous potential of machine learning in facilitating molecular (hyper)screening approaches on a massive scale and in accelerating the discovery of new compounds and materials, such as organic molecules with high-RI for applications in opto-electronics.</p></div></div></div>
