Journal ArticleDOI

Applications of genetic algorithms on the structure–activity correlation study of a group of non-nucleoside HIV-1 inhibitors

TL;DR: A QSAR program combining genetic algorithm with multiple linear regression and cross-validation is developed and it is found that low lipophilicity at C-6, small compounds surface, high π electron density of the benzo fused ring and low dipole along the z axis were the most important factors that may influence the RT activities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development and Evaluation of MM/GBSA Based on a Variable Dielectric GB Model for Predicting Protein-Ligand Binding Affinities.

TL;DR: It is found that rational truncation of protein residues far from the binding site can significantly speed up theMM/GBSAVDGB calculations while almost does not influence the prediction accuracy, and it is feasible to implement the system-truncated MM/GB SAVDGB as a scoring function for SBDD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of Polarizable Gaussian Model for Molecular Mechanical Calculations I: Atomic Polarizability Parameterization To Reproduce ab Initio Anisotropy.

TL;DR: The new pGM and Thole models notably improve molecular polarization anisotropy, taking advantage of its ability to attenuate all short-range electrostatic interactions by fitting the ab initio molecular polarizability tensors calculated at the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ level.
Journal ArticleDOI

A rule-based algorithm for automatic bond type perception

TL;DR: An automatic algorithm for assigning chemical connectivity and bond order regardless of hydrogen for organic molecules is provided, and only three dimensional coordinates and element identities are needed for the algorithm.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Continuum Poisson–Boltzmann Model for Membrane Channel Proteins

TL;DR: The new continuum membrane model is optimized to best reproduce the distributions of buried water molecules in the membrane region as sampled in explicit water simulations and shows that the widely adopted water probe of 1.4 Å for globular proteins is a very reasonable default value for membrane protein simulations.
