Abstract
In this article, we establish a detailed mathematical investigation of the molecular graph of terbium niobate (TbNbO) from a chemical graph theory point of view. A series of degree-based topological indices, such as Randić, ABC, GA, Zagreb, and their redefined versions, are calculated to define molecular structure. In addition, related entropy values from these indices are found to determine structural complexity and information content. Numerical and graphical studies illustrate how indices and entropies are related to molecular size, showing unique growth trends and sensitivities. Logarithmic SPSS regression models are formulated to investigate how topological indices are related to entropy measures, providing significant correlations. The findings show how various indices are complementary to each other in representing local and global structures and are useful in molecular characterization, drug discovery, and computational chemistry.
期刊介绍:
Computational Biology and Chemistry publishes original research papers and review articles in all areas of computational life sciences. High quality research contributions with a major computational component in the areas of nucleic acid and protein sequence research, molecular evolution, molecular genetics (functional genomics and proteomics), theory and practice of either biology-specific or chemical-biology-specific modeling, and structural biology of nucleic acids and proteins are particularly welcome. Exceptionally high quality research work in bioinformatics, systems biology, ecology, computational pharmacology, metabolism, biomedical engineering, epidemiology, and statistical genetics will also be considered.
Given their inherent uncertainty, protein modeling and molecular docking studies should be thoroughly validated. In the absence of experimental results for validation, the use of molecular dynamics simulations along with detailed free energy calculations, for example, should be used as complementary techniques to support the major conclusions. Submissions of premature modeling exercises without additional biological insights will not be considered.
Review articles will generally be commissioned by the editors and should not be submitted to the journal without explicit invitation. However prospective authors are welcome to send a brief (one to three pages) synopsis, which will be evaluated by the editors.
