정량적 구조 활성관계 모델링은 물리적인 성질과 생물학적 활성이 관계 있다는 것을 전제로 한다. 그러나, 퍼센트 활성과 같은 데이터들은 모델링에 많이 활용되지 않았다. 이것의 중요한 이유중의 하나는 이러한 값들이 정량적이 아니고 정성적인 데에 있다. 본 연구에서는 분자모델링에 퍼센트활성 데이터를 활용하기 위하여 데이터 값들을 2개의 계층으로 분류하고 CoMFA(비교분자장)를 판별함수로 활용하였다. 즉, 베타-케토아세트아닐라이드 유도체들의 토마토 역병균에 대한 항균력 시험의 퍼센트 활성 데이터를, 한 계층은 활성이 있는 것, 다른 계층은 활성이 없는 것으로 나누었다. 특히, CoMFA를 활용함으로써 화학적인 이해에 중요한 3차원적인 정보를 얻을 수 있었다. 이 모델은 주어진 데이타를 98%의 정확도로 설명하였으며, LOO 검증을 해본 결과 예측력은 약 69% 정도였다 이 결과는 활성 데이터를 근사적으로 2개의 계급으로 나누고 CoMFA를 활용하는 방식이 구조활성관계를 이해하고 화합물 유도체를 합성하는데 활용될 수 있음을 보여준다.

일련의 헤테로 고리 치환(X) chalcone 유도체들에 의한 farnesyl protein transferase(FPTase) 저해활성을 측정하여 분자내 styryl group의 치환기(Y) 변화에 따른 정량적인 구조와 FPTase 저해 활성과의 관계(QSARs)를 modified Free-Wilson(F-W)방법 및 Hansch 방법으로 분석 검토하였다. F-W 분석에 따르면 (X)-치환기는 FPTase 저해 활성에 기여하지 않았다 그러나 (Y)-치환기들은 ortho>meta>para 치환체의 순서로 ortho-치환체와 ${\alpha}$탄소의 알짜 전하$(C_{\alpha})$가 활성에 기여하였다. 모든 헤테로 고리 치환체에 대한 Hansch 분석에 의하면 전자 밀게(R<0)의 폭$(B_1)$이 작은 ortho-치환체로서 적정값, $(R)_{opt.}=-0.35$를 갖는 공명상수가 저해활성에 영향을 미친다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 헤테로 치환체들 사이의 FPTase 저해활성은 모두 비례관계를 보임으로써 같은 경향으로 저해활성이 발현되었으며 비(H)치환체 45가 제일 높은 FPTase 저해활성$(pI_{50}=4.30)$을 보였다.

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is primarily responsible for human hypertension. Current ACE drugs show serious cough and angiodema health problems due to the un-specific activity of the drug to ACE protein. The availability of ACE crystal structure (1UZF) provided the plausible biological orientation of inhibitors to ACE active site (C-domain). Three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) models have been constructed using the comparative molecula. field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) for a series of 28 ACE inhibitors. Alignment for CoMFA obtained by docking ligands to 1UZF protein using FlexX program showed better statistical model as compared to superposition of corresponding atoms. The statistical parameters indicate reasonable models for both CoMFA (q$^2$ = 0.530, r$^2$ = 0.998) and CoMSIA (q$^2$= 0.518, r$^2$ = 0.990). The 3D-QSAR analyses provide valuable information for the design of ACE inhibitors with potent activity towards C-domain of ACE. The group substitutions involving the phenyl ring and carbon chain at the propionyl and sulfonyl moieties of captopril are essential for specific activity to ACE.

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), a major pathogen of cattle, is a well-characterized pestivirus which has been used as a good model virus for HCV. The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) plays a key role in the RNA replication process, thus it has been targeted for antivirus drugs. We employed two-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (2D-QSAR) and molecular field analysis (MFA) to identify the molecular substructure requirements, and the particular characteristics resulted in increased inhibitory activity for the known series of compounds to act as effective BVDV inhibitors. The 2D-QSAR study provided the rationale concept for changes in the structure to have more potent analogs focused on the class of arylazoenamines, benzimidazoles, and acridine derivatives with an optimal subset of descriptors, which have significantly contributed to overall anti-BVDV activity. MFA represented the molecular patterns responsible for the actions of antiviral compound at their receptors. We conclude that the polarity and the polarizability of a molecule play a main role in the inhibitory activity of BVDV inhibitors in the QSAR modeling.

To see the quantitative relationship between the structures of the C-7 substituted quinolones and their antibacterial activities, theoretical parameters such as the molecular van der Waals volume, surface area and some electrostatic parameters based on the molecular electrostatic potential, which represent lipophilicity, and some quantum mechanical parameters are introduced as descriptors. The sixteen substituted quinolone derivatives and twenty bacteria are used for the study. It is found that the QSARs of C-7 substituted quinolones are obtained for eleven bacteria and our descriptors are more useful for Gram positive organisms than negative ones. It is also shown that molecular surface area (or molecular Waals volume) of the C-7 substituent and net charge of C-7 atom of the quinolones are the descriptors of utmost importance.

A four dimensional quantitative structure activity relationship analysis was applied to a series of 50 flavonoid inhibitors of $p56^{lck}$ protein tyrosine kinase by the molecular comparative electron topological method. It was found that the -log (IC50) values of the compounds were highly dependent on the topology, size and electrostatic character of the substituents at seven positions of the flavonoid scaffold in this study. Depending on the negative or positive charge of the groups correctly embedded in these substituents, three-dimensional bio-structure to increase or decrease -log (IC50) values in the training set of 39 compounds was predicted. The test set of 11 compounds was used to evaluate the predictivity of the model. To generate 4D-QSAR model, the defined function groups and pharmacophore used as topological descriptors in the calculation of activity were of sufficient statistical quality ($R^2$ = 0.72 and $Q^2$ = 0.69). Ligand docking approach by using Dock 6.0. These compounds include many flavonoid analogs, They were docked onto human families of p56lck PTKs retrieved from the Protein Data Bank, 1lkl.pdb.

Recently there is increasing interest in the use of structure activity relationships for predicting the biological activity of chemicals. The reasons for the interest include the decrease cost and time per chemical as compared with animal or cell system for identifying toxicological effects of chemicals and the reduction in the use of animals for toxicological testing. This study is to test the validity of the mutagenicity data generated from QSAR (Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship) program. Thirty chemicals, which had been evaluated by Ames test during 1997-1999, were assessed with TOPKAT QSAR mutagenicity prediction module. Among 30chemicals experimented, 28 were negative and 2 were positive for Ames test. On the contrary, 23 chemicals showed the high confidence level indicating high prediction rate in mutagenicity evaluation, and 7 chemicals showed the lsow to moderate confidence level indicating low prediction in mutagenicity evaluation. Overall mutagenicity prediction rate was 77% (23/30). The prediction rates for non-mutagenic chemicals were 79% (22/28) and mutagenic chemicals were 50% (1/2). QSAR could be a useful tool in providing toxicological data for newly introduced chemicals or in furnishing data for MSDS or in determining the dose in toxicity testing for chemicals with no known toxicological data.

A series of dihydroxylated chalcone derivatives with diverse substitution patterns on a phenyl ring B and the para-substituents on a phenyl ring A were prepared, and their radical scavenging activities were evaluated by simple DPPH test to determine quantitative structure-activity relationship in these series of compounds. The chalcone compounds with the ortho- (i.e. 2',3'- and 3',4'-) and para- (i.e. 2,5'-) substitution patterns show an excellent antioxidant activities (80-90% of control at the concentration of 50 $\mu$M) which are comparable to those of ascorbic acid and $\alpha$ -tocopherol as positive reference materials. On the contrary, the compounds with meta- (i.e. 2',4'-, 3',5'-) substitution pattern demonstrate very dramatic decrease in activities which are around 25% of the control even at the concentration of 200 $\mu$ M (IC50 > 200 $\mu$ M). These dramatic differences could be interpreted in terms of the ease formation of fairly stable semiquinone radicals from the ortho- and parasubstituted chalcone molecules through facilitating electron delocalization. Our results indicate that the substitution patterns of two hydroxyl groups on ring B are very important structural factors for their radical scavenging activity enhancement. Meanwhile, the substituents at para-position of the phenyl ring A of chalcones have no influence on the activity.

본 연구는 ${\beta}$-carotene과 lycopene의 양자역학 및 화학적 항산화능과 세포 내 항산화 효과를 분석하였다. ${\beta}$-Carotene과 lycopene의 항산화능을 양자역학적으로 비교한 결과 lycopene의 항산화능이 ${\beta}$-carotene보다 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 항산화능의 차이는 FRAP로 측정하였을 때도 유사하게 관찰되었다. Trolox와 비교했을 때 ${\beta}$-carotene과 lycopene의 FRAP 수치는 유의적으로 낮았으나 LPS에 의한 세포 내 ROS 생성을 낮추는 데는 두 카로티노이드가 더 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로 본 연구에서 비교한 ${\beta}$-carotene과 lycopene의 양자역학적 항산화능은 화학적 항산화능을 일부 반영하지만, 실제 세포 내 ROS에 의한 산화스트레스 저하 효과와는 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
