Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase is a major target for designing anti-HIV drugs. Developed inhibitors are divided into non-nucleoside analog reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) and nucleoside analog reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) depending on their mechanism. Given that many inhibitors have been studied and for many of them binding affinity constants have been calculated, it is beneficial to analyze the chemical landscape of these families of inhibitors and correlate these inhibition constants with molecular structure descriptors. For this, the HIV-1 RT data was retrieved from the ChEMBL database, carefully curated, and original literature verified, grouped into NRTIs and NNRTIs, analyzed using a hierarchical scaffold classification method and modelled with best multi-linear regression approach. Analysis of the HIV-1 NNRTIs subset results in ten different common structural parent types of oxazepanone, piperazinone, pyrazine, oxazinanone, diazinanone, pyridine, pyrrole, diazepanone, thiazole, and triazine. The same analysis for HIV-1 NRTIs groups structures into four different parent types of uracil, pyrimide, pyrimidione, and imidazole. Each scaffold tree corresponding to the parent types has been carefully analyzed and examined, and changes in chemical structure favorable to potency and stability are highlighted. For both subsets, descriptive and predictive QSAR models are derived, discussed and externally validated, revealing general trends in relationships between molecular structure and binding affinity constants in structurally diverse datasets. Data and QSAR models are available at the QsarDB repository (http://dx.doi.org/10.15152/QDB.202).

Abstract
The need for the development of new drugs to combat existing and newly identified conditions is unavoidable. One of the important tools used in the advanced drug development pipeline is computer-aided drug design. Traditionally, to find a drug many ligands were synthesized and evaluated for their effectiveness using suitable bioassays and if all other drug-likeness features were met, the candidate(s) would possibly reach the market. Although this approach is still in use in advanced format, computational methods are an indispensable component of modern drug development projects. One of the methods used from very early days of rationalizing the drug design approaches is Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR). This chapter overviews QSAR modeling steps by introducing molecular descriptors, mathematical model development for relating biological activities to molecular structures, and model validation. At the end, several successful cases where QSAR studies were used extensively are presented.

Abstract
Researchers are on the constant lookout for new antiviral agents for the treatment of AIDS. In the present work, ligand based modeling studies are performed on analogues of substituted phenyl-thio-thymines, which act as non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) and novel leads are extracted. Using alignment-dependent descriptors, based on group center overlap (SALL, HDALL, HAALL and RALL), an alignment-independent descriptor (S log P), a topological descriptor (Balaban index (J)) and a 3D descriptor dipole moment (μ) and shape based descriptors (Kappa 2 index ((2)κ)), a correlation is derived with inhibitory activity. Linear and non-linear techniques have been used to achieve the goal. Support Vector Machine (SVM, R = 0.929, R(2) = 0.863) and Back Propagation Neural Network (BPNN, R = 0.928, R(2) = 0.861) methods yielded near similar results and outperformed Multiple Linear Regression (MLR, R = 0.915, R(2) = 0.837). The predictive ability of the models are cross-validated using a test dataset (SVM: R = 0.846, R(2) = 0.716, BPNN: R = 0.841, R(2) = 0.707 and MLR: R = 0.833, R(2) = 0.694). It is concluded that the hydrophobicity (S log P) and the polarity (μ) of a ligand and the presence of hydrogen donor (HDALL) moieties are the deciding factors in improving antiviral activity and pharmaco-therapeutic properties. Based on the above findings, a virtual dataset is created to extract probable leads with reasonable antiviral activity as well as better pharmacophoric properties.

Abstract
AbstractAbstract The CORAL software (http://www.insilico.eu/coral/) has been examined as a tool for modeling anti-HIV-1 activity by quantitative structure — activity relationships (QSAR) for three different sets: (i) TIBO derivatives (n=82) (ii) anti-HIV-1 activity of 2-amino-6-arylsulfonylbenzonitriles and their congeners (n=64), and (iii) the measured binding affinity for fullerene-based HIV-1 PR inhibitors (n=48). A new global invariant ATOMPAIR of the molecular structure which can be calculated with the simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES) was studied. The ATOMPAIR is an indicator of the joint presence of pairs of chemical elements (F, Cl, Br, N, O, S, and P) and three types of bonds (double covalent bond, triple covalent bond, and stereo chemical bond). Six random splits into sub-training, calibration, and test set were examined for each set. For the three aforementioned sets, the use of ATOMPAIR in the modeling process improves the predictive potential of the models for six random splits. Graphical abstract

Abstract
The present work focuses on the development of an interpretable quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) model for predicting the anti-HIV activities of 67 thiazolylthiourea derivatives. This set of molecules has been proposed as potent HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitors (RT-INs). The molecules were encoded to a diverse set of molecular descriptors, spanning different physical and chemical properties. Monte Carlo (MC) sampling and multivariate adaptive regression spline (MARS) techniques were used to select the most important descriptors and to predict the activity of the molecules. The most important descriptor was found to be the aspherisity index. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) and interpretable spline equations showed that the geometrical shape of the molecules has considerable effect on their activities. It seems that the linear molecules are more active than symmetric top compounds. The final MARS model derived displayed a good predictive ability judging from the determination coefficient corresponding to the leave multiple out (LMO) cross-validation technique, i.e. r (2 )= 0.828 (M = 12) and r (2 )= 0.813 (M = 20). The results of this work showed that the developed spline model is robust, has a good predictive power, and can then be used as a reliable tool for designing novel HIV-1 RT-INs.

Abstract
Small molecule permeability through cellular membranes is critical to a better understanding of pharmacodynamics and the drug discovery endeavor. Such permeability may be estimated as a function of the free energy change of barrier crossing by invoking the barrier domain model, which posits that permeation is limited by passage through a single “barrier domain” and assumes diffusivity differences among compounds of similar structure are negligible. Inspired by the work of Rezai and co-workers (JACS 128:14073–14080, 2006), we estimate this free energy change as the difference in implicit solvation free energies in chloroform and water, but extend their model to include solute conformational affects. Using a set of eleven structurally diverse FDA approved compounds and a set of thirteen congeneric molecules, we show that the solvation free energies are dominated by the global minima, which allows solute conformational distributions to be effectively neglected. For the set of tested compounds, the best correlation with experiment is obtained when the implicit chloroform global minimum is used to evaluate the solvation free energy difference.
