The Information Content of 2D and 3D Structural Descriptors Relevant to Ligand-Receptor Binding

Brown, Robert D., Martin, Yvonne C.·1997·Journal of Chemical Information and Computer Sciences

Abstract

We have previously studied the ability of various structural descriptors to distinguish between biologically active and inactive compounds (ref 1). This paper examines the degree to which these descriptors encode information relevant to the forces of ligand-receptor binding, namely hydrophobic, dispersion, electrostatic, steric, and hydrogen bonding interactions. This is assessed by the ability to accurately predict values for physical properties of a structure related to each of the interactions, from the known values for other structures which are shown to be structurally similar to the first by the descriptor in question. Our results suggest that the differences we observed in the ability of descriptors to separate active from inactive molecules may be explained by the degree to which they encode information relevant to ligand-receptor binding. In particular we found that the MACCS structural key descriptor implicitly contains a great deal of information relevant to each type of interaction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
