Abstract
Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) is important for safe, rapid and effective risk assessment of chemicals. In this study, two QSAR models were established with 1230 chemicals to predict toxicity towards Tetrahymena pyriformis using multiple linear regression (MLR) method. The topological(T)-QSAR model was developed by using topological-norm descriptors generated from the topological structure, and the spatial(S)-QSAR model were built with spatial-norm descriptors obtained from the three-dimensional structure of molecules and topological-norm descriptors. The r2training and r2test are 0.8304 and 0.8338 for the T-QSAR model, and 0.8485 and 0.8585 for the S-QSAR model, which means that T-QSAR model and S-QSAR model can be used to predict toxicity quickly and accurately. In addition, we also conducted validation on the developed models. Satisfying validation results and statistical parameters demonstrated that QSAR models based on the topological-norm descriptors and spatial-norm descriptors proposed in this paper could be further utilized to estimate the toxicity of chemicals towards Tetrahymena pyriformis.
期刊介绍:
SAR and QSAR in Environmental Research is an international journal welcoming papers on the fundamental and practical aspects of the structure-activity and structure-property relationships in the fields of environmental science, agrochemistry, toxicology, pharmacology and applied chemistry. A unique aspect of the journal is the focus on emerging techniques for the building of SAR and QSAR models in these widely varying fields. The scope of the journal includes, but is not limited to, the topics of topological and physicochemical descriptors, mathematical, statistical and graphical methods for data analysis, computer methods and programs, original applications and comparative studies. In addition to primary scientific papers, the journal contains reviews of books and software and news of conferences. Special issues on topics of current and widespread interest to the SAR and QSAR community will be published from time to time.
