Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Significant progress has been made in the study of three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationships (3D QSAR) since the first publication by Richard Cramer in 1988 and the first volume in the series. 3D QSAR in Drug Design. Theory, Methods and Applications, published in 1993. The aim of that early book was to contribute to the understanding and the further application of CoMFA and related approaches and to facilitate the appropriate use of these methods. Since then, hundreds of papers have appeared using the quickly developing techniques of both 3D QSAR and computational sciences to study a broad variety of biological problems. Again the editor(s) felt that the time had come to solicit reviews on published and new viewpoints to document the state of the art of 3D QSAR in its broadest definition and to provide visions of where new techniques will emerge or new appli- tions may be found. The intention is not only to highlight new ideas but also to show the shortcomings, inaccuracies, and abuses of the methods. We hope this book will enable others to separate trivial from visionary approaches and me-too methodology from in- vative techniques. These concerns guided our choice of contributors. To our delight, our call for papers elicited a great many manuscripts.

Book excerpt: The authors introduce the concept of Molecular Quantum Similarity, developed in their laboratory, in a didactic form. The basis of the concept combines quantum theoretical calculations with molecular structure and properties even for large molecules. They give definitions and procedures to compute similarities molecules and provide graphical tools for visualization of sets of molecules as n-dimensional point charts.

This book was released on 2013-07-22 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molecular similarity is the foundational principle for drug design, wherein new molecules are designed that are “similar enough” to known compounds to have a good chance at being active but “different enough” to have a chance at being superior. Quantifying the level of similarity or dissimilarity between two molecules has been a long-standing area of investigation, and decades of research have yielded an impressive array of tools and techniques for measuring and calculating these relationships. Molecular Similarity: Concepts and Applications for Pharmaceutical Research provides a comprehensive review of “best practices” within the field of molecular similarity as it applies to drug design, covering fundamentals and concepts, case studies, and strategies for integration. Topics covered include: • theory and concepts in molecular similarity • 1-D, 2-D and 3-D methods for chemical similarity • biochemical similarity • target similarity – pockets and docking • integrating multiple approaches to chemical similarity • case studies in lead discovery, optimization and target discovery; kinome/GPCR profiling; polypharmacology; and off-target discovery Molecular Similarity: Concepts and Applications for Pharmaceutical Research will appeal to both the newcomer and the expert, providing a foundational text upon which to gain familiarity with the field, develop localized strategies, and conduct further research.

Book excerpt: In recent years the fundamental concepts and applied methodologies of molecular similarity analysis have experienced a revolutionary development. Motivated by the increased degree of understanding of elementary molecular properties on the levels ranging from fundamental quantum chemistry to the complex interactions of biomolecules, and aided by the spectacular progress in computer technology and access to computer power, the area has opened up to many new ideas and new approaches. This book covers topics in quantum similarity approaches, electron density shape analysis methods, and it provides better theoretical understanding of molecular similarity. Additionally, quantitative shape analysis, especially activity relations (QShAR) and the prediction of the pharmacological or toxicological effects of molecules in the related context of quantum QSAR (QQSAR). This volume written by the experts in the various subfields of molecular similarity, provides a collection of the most recent ideas, advances, and methodologies. It is the hope of the Editors that by representing these topics within a single volume, the readers will find a balanced overview of the status of the field. We also hope that the book will serve as a tool for selecting and assessing the best approach for various new types of problems of molecular similarity that may arise and it will provide a set of easy references for further studies and applications.

This book was released on 1995-07-31 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Similarities in chemical reactivity depend on molecular properties, and are ultimately dependent on the similarities of electronic structures. Fundamentally, quantum chemical similarities are manifested in similarities of molecular behaviour. This book covers both the quantum chemical origins and the methods of phenomenological descriptions of molecular similarity. The emphasis on reactivity is a unique feature. The exposition of computational methods and the prediction of reactivities, as well as the description of actual computer programs constitute important aspects of the book. Specific applications in drug design and techniques for the interpretation of the roles of functional groups in reactivity are of interest in molecular engineering. The selection of topics provides a detailed and balanced introduction to the field of similarity-based assessment of chemical reactivity. For researchers and graduate students in both fundamental chemistry and applied fields, such as biochemistry, pharmacology and drug design.
