비스 방향족 ${\alpha},{\beta}$-불포화 케톤 유도체의 헤테로 방향족고리($R_{1}$) 치환체중 치환 phenyl backbone($R_{2}$)들의 구조변환에 따른 벼도열병균(Pyricularia oryzae)과 토마토역병균(Phytophthora irifestans)에 대한 in vivo에서의 항균활성 관계(SAR)를 3-D QSAR 방법인 비교분자장 분석(CoMFA)으로 해석하였다. 두 식물병원균에 대한 항균활성을 설명하는 CoMFA결과는 2-D QSAR에서 검토된 결과와 유사한 경향이었으며 입체효과(Es)와 전자효과(${\sigma}$)로 설명할 수 있었다. 즉, 벼도열병균은 aryl group에 bulky한 치환기(Es>0)가 도입되어야 하며 ${\beta}$탄소원자의 양하전이 증가할수록 강한 항균활성을 나타낼것으로 기대되었다. 반면, 토마토역병균의 경우에는 aryl group에 체적이 작은 치환기가 도입될수록, 그리고 ${\beta}$ 탄소원자의 양하전이 감소할수록 강한 항균활성을 나타낼 것으로 기대 되었다. 또한, 입체효과와 전자효과를 등 고도로 나타낸 CoMFA결과가 기존의 2-D QSAR보다 항균활성에 미치는 화합물의 구조적 요인을 보다 구체적으로 제시할 수 있었다.

N-phenylbenzenesulfonamide 및 N-phenyl-2-thienylsulfonamide 유도체(1-34)들의 phenyl 및 theinyl 고리상치환기(R1-R5) 변화에 따른 모잘록병균(Pythium ultimum)의 살균활성에 관한 3차원적인 정량적 구조와 활성과의 관계(3D-QSARs)들을 비교 분자장 분석(CoMFA)과 비교분자 유사성 지수분석(CoMSIA) 방법으로 각각 검토하였다. 전반적으로 CoMSIA 모델들의 통계값은 atom based fit 정렬보다는 field fit 정렬시에 높은 값을 나타내었으나 CoMFA모델의 경우에는 차이가 없었다. 그리고 CoMSIA (FF1) 모델($r_{cv.}^2\;(q^2)=0.674$ 및 $r_{ncv.}^2=0.964$)이 CoMFA (AF5) 모델($r_{cv.}^2\;(q^2)=0.616$ 및 $r_{ncv.}^2=0.930$)보다 상관성과 예측성이 양호하였다. CoMSIA (FF1) 모델의 정보에 따라 살균활성은 분자의 정전기장과 소수성장에 의존적이었다. 또한, CoMSIA (FF3) 모델의 등고도 분석 결과로부터 N-phenyl 고리상 R4-치환기의 친수성과 수소결합 받게로서의 성질인 모잘록병균의 살균활성에 기여할 것으로 예상되었다.

일련의 새로운 기질 분자로서 2-(4-(6-chloro-2-benzoxazolyloxy)phenoxy)-N-phenylpropionamide 유도체들의 구조 변화와 그에 따른 발아 전, 논피 (Echinochloa crus-galli)에 대한 제초활성과의 분자 홀로그래피적(H) QSAR 관계를 연구하였다. 그 결과로부터 높은 제초활성 화합물들이 유도된 HQSAR 모델에 의하여 예측되었다. 가장 양호한 HQSAR 모델은 분자조각 크기($7{\sim}10bin$) 조건에서 유도된 모델(VI-1)이었다. 제초활성에 관한 HQSAR 모델(VI-1)은 높은 예측성($r^2_{cv.}$ 또는 $q^2=0.646$)과 상관성($r^2_{ncv.}=0.917$)에 근거하여 양호한 통계값들을 나타내었다. 그리고 HQSAR 기여도로부터 가장 낮은 제초활성은 4-(6-chloro-2-benzoxazolyloxy)phenoxy 고리($pred.pI_{50}=-3.20$)에 의존적이었다. 특히, (X)-phenoxy-N-(R)-phenylpropionamide 유도체의 R=4-fluoro, X=isobutoxy 치환체인 4-isobutoxyphenoxy-N-(4-fluorophenyl)propionamide (P2)는 가장 높은 제초활성($pred.pI_{50}=9.12$)을 나타내는 화합물로 예측되었다.

기질 화합물로써 일련의 4-($R_1$)-benzyl alcohol 및 4-($R_2$)-phenol 유도체들의 치환기($R_1$ 및 $R_2$)가 변화함에 따른 tyrosinase 활성저해에 관한 3차원적인 구조-활성 상관 (3D-QSARs) 모델을 유도하고 정량적으로 검토하였다. 그 결과, 입체장, 정전기장, 소수성장 및 수소결합 주게장의 조합조건에서 통계적으로 양호한 CoMSIA 2 모델(상관성; $r^2\;=\;0.858$ 및 예측성; $q^2\;=\;0.951$)을 유도하였다. 등고도 분석결과, 기질분자의 $R_2$-치환기는 입체적으로 작고 음전하를 띄며, 소수성이면서 수소결합 주게장을 선호하지 않는 치환기가, 그리고 $R_1$-치환기는 양전하를 띄며 수소결합 주게장을 선호하는 치환기가 tyrosinase의 저해활성이 증가 될 것으로 예상되었으며, 수소결합 받게장은 전혀 영향을 미치지 않았다.

Microtubules play an important role in intracellular transport, mobility, and particularly mitosis. Paclitaxel (Taxol$^{TM}$) and paclitaxel-like compounds have been shown to be anti-tumor agents useful for various human tumors. Paclitaxel-like compounds operate by stabilizing microtubules through interface binding at the interface between two ${\beta}$-tubulin monomers in adjacent protofilaments. In this paper we present the elucidation of the structural features of paclitaxel and paclitaxel-like compounds (e.g., epothilones) with microtubule stabilizing activities, and relate their activities to spatial and chemical features of the molecules. CATALYST program was used to generate three-dimensional quantitative structure activity relationships (3D-QSARs) resulting in 3D pharmacophore models of epothilone- and paclitaxel-derivatives. Pharmacophore models were generated from diverse conformers of these compounds resulting in a high correlation between experimental and predicted biological activities (r = 0.83 and 0.91 for epothilone and paclitaxel derivatives, respectively). On the basis of biological activities of the training sets, five- and four-feature pharmacophore hypotheses were generated in the epothilone and paclitaxel series. The validation of generated hypotheses was achieved by using twelve epothilones and ten paclitaxels, respectively, which are not in the training sets. The clustering (grouping) and merging techniques were used in order to supplement spatial restrictions of each of hypothesis and to develop more comprehensive models. This approach may be of use in developing novel inhibitor candidates as well as contributing a better understanding of structural characters of many compounds useful as anticancer agents targeting microtubules.

Objectives In this study, the possibility of using existing test data provided in Korea and elsewhere for the registration of chemical substances was examined. Data on 510 chemical substances that are among the first subject to registration under the "Act on the Registration and Evaluation, etc. of Chemical Substances (K-REACH)" were analyzed. Methods The possibility of using existing data from 16 reference databases was examined for 510 chemical substances notified in July 2015 as being subject to registration. Results Test data with the reliability required for the registration of chemical substances under the K-REACH constituted 48.4% of the required physicochemical characteristics, 6.5% of the required health hazards, and 9.4% of the required environmental hazards. Conclusions Some existing test data were not within the scope of this research, including data used for registration in the European Union (EU). Thus, considering that 350 of these 510 species are registered in EU Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation & Restriction of Chemicals, more test data may exist that can be utilized in addition to the data identified in this study. Furthermore, the K-REACH states that non-testing data (test results predicted through Read Across, Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships) and the weight of evidence (test results predicted based on test data with low reliability) can also be utilized for registration data. Therefore, if methods for using such data were actively reviewed, it would be possible to reduce the cost of securing test data required for the registration of chemical substances.

Ten (E)-and (Z)-isomers of 2-phenylcyclopropylamine (PCA), 1-Me PCA, 2-Me-PCA, N-Me-PCA, and N, N-diMe PCA and fifteen o-. m-, p- isomers of (E) PCA with substituents of Me, Cl, F, OMe, OH were synthesized in this laboratory and tested for the inhibition of rat brain mitochondrial MAO-A and MAO-B. The effects of substituents, their positions, and stereochemistry on the inhibition were assessed for the compounds with substituents at cyclopropyl and amino groups and QSAR analyses were performed using the potency data of ring-substituted compounds. The best correlated QSAR equations are as follows : pI$_{50}$ = 0.804 $\pi^2$-0.834 Blo-1.069 Blm + 0.334 Lp-1.709 HDp +7.897 (r = 0.945, s =0.211, F = 16.691, p = 0.000) for the inhibition of MAO-A;PI$_{50}$= 1.815$\pi$-0.825 $\pi^2$-1.203R + 0.900 Es$^2$ + 0.869 Es$^3$ + 0.796 Es$^4$-0.992 HDp + 0.562 HAo + 3.893 (r = 0.982, s =0.178, F = 23.351, p = 0.000) for the inhibition of MAO-B. Based on the potency difference between stereoisomers of cyclopropylamine-modified compounds and an QSAR cavity near para position, two hydrophobic carities interacting with Me group, a hydrophobic site near para position, and an amino group binding site and that in addition to the same two hydrophotic cavities, hydrophotic area, steric boundaries, hydrogen-acceptor site, and amino group binding site, another steric boundary near para position and a hydrogen donating site near ortho position constitute active sites of MAO-B.

In this study, we analyzed the toxicity of mixtures of dimethylformamide (DMF) and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or DMF and toluene (TOL) and predicted their toxicity using quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR). A QSAR model for single substances and mixtures was analyzed using multiple linear regression (MLR) by taking into account the statistical parameters between the observed and predicted $EC_{50}$. After preprocessing, the best subsets of descriptors in the learning methods were determined using a 5-fold cross-validation method. Significant differences in physico-chemical properties such as boiling point (BP), specific gravity (SG), Reid vapor pressure (rVP), flash point (FP), low explosion limit (LEL), and octanol/water partition coefficient (Pow) were observed between the single substances and the mixtures. The $EC_{50}$ of the mixture of DMF and TOL was significantly lower than that of DMF. The mixture toxicity was directly related to the mixing ratio of TOL and MEK (MLR $EC_{50}$ equation = $1.76997-1.12249{\times}TOL+1.21045{\times}MEK$), as well as to SG, VP, and LEL (MLR equation $EC_{50}=15.44388-19.84549{\times}SG+0.05091{\times}VP+1.85846{\times}LEL$). These results show that QSAR-based models can be used to quantitatively predict the toxicity of mixtures used in manufacturing industries.

Benzoyl peroxide is a High Production Volume Chemical, which is produced about 1,375 tons/year in Korea as of 2001 survey. The substance is mainly used as initiators in polymerization, catalysts in the plastics industry, bleaching agents for flour and medication for acne vulgaris. The substance is one of seven chemicals of which human health and environmental risks are being assessed by National Institute of Environmental Research (NIER) under the frame of OECD SIDS Program. In this study, Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships (QSAR) is used for getting adequate information on the physical-chemical property and the environmental fate of this chemical. For the assessment of benzoyl peroxide, models such as MPBPWIN for vapor pressure, KOWWIN for octanol/water partition coefficient, HENRYWIN for Henry's Law constant, AOPWIN for photolysis and BCFWN for bioconcentration factor (BCF) were used. These (Q)SAR model programmes were worked by using the SHILES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry System) notations. The physical-chemical properties and the environmental fate of benzoyl peroxide were estimated as followed : vapor pressure =0.00929 Pa, Log Kow = 3.43, Henry's Law constant = 0.00000354 atm-㎥/mole at 25 $^{\circ}C$, the half-life of photodegradation = 3 days, bioconcentration factor (BCF) = 92

일련의 새로운 3-benzylidenemyosmine 유도체들의 구조 변화와 미국 바퀴벌래(Periplaneta. americana L.)의 nicotin acetylcholine 수용체 (nAChRs) 사이의 결합 친화력 상수에 관한 정량적인 구조와 활성과의 관계를 분자 홀로그램(H) QSAR 방법으로 검토하였다. 친화력 상수에 관하여 가장 양호한 HQSAR 모델은 분자조각 크기 5${\sim}$8 bin 조건에서 유도된 모델(IV-2)이었다. HQSAR 모델(VI-2)은 높은 예측성(q$^2$=0.507)과 상관성(r$^2_{nev.}$=0.944)에 근거하여 양호한 통계값들을 나타내었다. 그리고 HQSAR 기여도로부터 결합 친화력 상수는 분자내 anabaseine 고리에 의존적이었으며 결합 친화력성이 높은 화합물들이 최적화된 모델(VI-2)에 의하여 설계되었다.
