This study aimed to propose new indole derivatives as anticancer through Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) and molecular docking method. The best predicted anticancer activity of indole derivatives was recommended based on the QSAR equation. A data set consist of 18 indole derivatives from literature with anticancer activity against the A498 cell line was used to generate a QSAR model equation. The data set was divided randomly into training (14) and test (4) set compounds. The structure of indole compound was optimized first using AM1 semi-empirical methods, and the descriptors involved were analyzed using Multiple Linear Regression (MLR). The best QSAR equation obtained was Log IC50 = 65.596 (qC2) + 366.764 (qC6) – 92.742 (qC11) + 503.297 (HOMO) – 492.550 (LUMO) – 76.966. Based on the QSAR model, varying electron-withdrawing groups in C2 and C6 atom, as well as adding electron-donating groups in C11 were proposed could increase the anticancer activity of the indole derivatives. The QSAR analysis showed that compound 15 has the best predicted anticancer activity, supported by molecular docking results that showed hydrogen bond interaction with essential amino acids to build anticancer activity such as MET769, THR830, and THR766 residues.

Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) analysis of vincadifformine analogs as an antimalarial drug has been conducted using atomic net charges (q), moment dipole (), LUMO (Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital) and HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) energies, molecular mass (m) as well as surface area (A) as the predictors to their activity. Data of predictors are obtained from computational chemistry method using semi-empirical molecular orbital AM1 calculation. Antimalarial activities were taken as the activity of the drugs against chloroquine-sensitive Plasmodium falciparum (Nigerian Cell) strain and were presented as the value of ln(1/IC50) where IC50 is an effective concentration inhibiting 50% of the parasite growth. The best QSAR model has been determined by multiple linier regression analysis giving QSAR equation: Log (1/IC50) = 9.602.qC1 -17.012.qC2 +6.084.qC3 -19.758.qC5 -6.517.qC6 +2.746.qC7 -6.795.qN +6.59.qC8 -0.190. -0.974.ELUMO +0.515.EHOMO -0.274. +0.029.A -1.673 (n = 16; r = 0.995; SD = 0.099; F = 2.682)   Keywords: QSAR analysis, antimalaria, vincadifformine.

Design of new potent insecticide compounds of organophosphate derivatives based on QSAR (Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship) analytical model has been conducted. Organophosphate derivative compounds and their activities were obtained from the literature. Computational modeling of the structure of organophosphate derivative compounds and calculation of their QSAR descriptors have been done by AM1 (Austin Model 1) method. The best QSAR model was selected from the QSAR models that used only electronic descriptors and from those using both electronic and molecular descriptors. The best QSAR model obtained was:Log LD50 = 50.872 - 66.457 qC1 - 65.735 qC6 + 83.115 qO7 (n = 30, r = 0.876, adjusted r2 = 0.741, Fcal/Ftab = 9.636, PRESS = 2.414 x 10-6)The best QSAR model was then used to design in silico new compounds of insecticide of organophosphate derivatives with better activity as compared to the existing synthesized organophosphate derivatives. So far, the most potent insecticide of organophosphate compound that has been successfully synthesized had log LD50 of -5.20, while the new designed compound based on the best QSAR model, i.e.: 4-(diethoxy phosphoryloxy) benzene sulfonic acid, had log LD50 prediction of -7.29. Therefore, the new designed insecticide compound is suggested to be synthesized and tested for its activity in laboratory for further verification.

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.

Due to the genetic similarity between SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV, the present work endeavored to derive a balanced Quantitative Structure−Activity Relationship (QSAR) model, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation studies to identify novel molecules having inhibitory potential against the main protease (Mpro) of SARS-CoV-2. The QSAR analysis developed on multivariate GA–MLR (Genetic Algorithm–Multilinear Regression) model with acceptable statistical performance (R2 = 0.898, Q2loo = 0.859, etc.). QSAR analysis attributed the good correlation with different types of atoms like non-ring Carbons and Nitrogens, amide Nitrogen, sp2-hybridized Carbons, etc. Thus, the QSAR model has a good balance of qualitative and quantitative requirements (balanced QSAR model) and satisfies the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) guidelines. After that, a QSAR-based virtual screening of 26,467 food compounds and 360 heterocyclic variants of molecule 1 (benzotriazole–indole hybrid molecule) helped to identify promising hits. Furthermore, the molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of Mpro with molecule 1 recognized the structural motifs with significant stability. Molecular docking and QSAR provided consensus and complementary results. The validated analyses are capable of optimizing a drug/lead candidate for better inhibitory activity against the main protease of SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract Background Food flavors are relatively low molecular weight chemicals with unique odor-related functional groups that may also be associated with mutagenicity. These chemicals are often difficult to test for mutagenicity by the Ames test because of their low production and peculiar odor. Therefore, application of the quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) approach is being considered. We used the StarDrop™ Auto-Modeller™ to develop a new QSAR model. Results In the first step, we developed a new robust Ames database of 406 food flavor chemicals consisting of existing Ames flavor chemical data and newly acquired Ames test data. Ames results for some existing flavor chemicals have been revised by expert reviews. We also collected 428 Ames test datasets for industrial chemicals from other databases that are structurally similar to flavor chemicals. A total of 834 chemicals’ Ames test datasets were used to develop the new QSAR models. We repeated the development and verification of prototypes by selecting appropriate modeling methods and descriptors and developed a local QSAR model. A new QSAR model “StarDrop NIHS 834_67” showed excellent performance (sensitivity: 79.5%, specificity: 96.4%, accuracy: 94.6%) for predicting Ames mutagenicity of 406 food flavors and was better than other commercial QSAR tools. Conclusions A local QSAR model, StarDrop NIHS 834_67, was customized to predict the Ames mutagenicity of food flavor chemicals and other low molecular weight chemicals. The model can be used to assess the mutagenicity of food flavors without actual testing.

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.

Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) based on electronic descriptors had been conducted on 2,3-dihydro-[1,4]dioxino[2,3-f]quinazoline analogues as anticancer using DFT/B3LYP method. The best QSAR equation described as follow: Log IC50 = -11.688 + (-35.522×qC6) + (-21.055×qC10) + (-85.682×qC12) + (-32.997×qO22) + (-85.129 EHOMO) + (19.724×ELUMO). Statistical value of R2 = 0.8732, rm2 = 0.7935, r2-r02/r2 = 0.0118, PRESS = 1.5727 and Fcalc/Ftable = 2.4067 used as external validation. Atomic net charge showed as the most important descriptor to predict activity and design new molecule. Following QSAR analysis, Lipinski rules was applied to filter the design compound due to physicochemical properties and resulted that all filtered compounds did not violate the rules. Docking analysis was conducted to determine interaction between proposed compounds and EGFR protein. Critical hydrogen bond was found in Met769 residue suggesting that proposed compounds could be used to inhibit EGFR protein.
