Abstract

A model, VLOGP, has been developed for assessment of n-octanol/water partition coefficient, log P, of chemicals from their structures. Unlike group contribution methods, VLOGP is based on linear free energy relationship (LFER) approach and employs information-rich electrotopological structure quantifiers derived solely from molecular topology. VLOGP, a robust and cross-validated model derived from accurately measured experimental log P values of 6675 diverse chemicals, has a coefficient of determination, R2, of 0.986 and a standard error of estimate of 0.20. When applied to the training set, the largest deviation observed between experimental and calculated log P was 0.42. VLOGP is different from other log P predictors in that its application domain, called Optimum Prediction Space (OPS), has been quantitatively defined, i.e., structures to which the model should not be applied for predicting log P can be identified. A computer-assisted implementation of this model within HDi's toxicity assessment software package, TOPKAT 3.0, automatically checks whether the submitted structure is inside the OPS or not. VLOGP was applied to a set of 113 chemicals not included in the training set. It was observed that for the structures inside ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
