  • Does hERG binding correlate with LogP?

    Does hERG binding correlate with LogP?

    Here is a very good analysis from human ERG blockers article: The plot below (created usingVortex)shows pIC50 calculated from the literature IC50 data versus calculated logP determined usingalogPS, the colour coding shows the overall general tend of increasing hERG activity as logP increases, it also...

    q-hERG: QUANTUM’s innovative approach to hERG binding calculations is finally released

    QUANTUM hERG (q-hERG) screening assays is a unique and innovative computational approach, which allows you to predict from a molecule structures of compounds their inhibition constants (IC50) for hERG channels. q-hEARG features: Output is pIC50 values (-logIC50) for the molecules. The accuracy of prediction is...

  • HERG binding prediction quality: q-HERG model vs. experiments

    HERG binding prediction quality: q-HERG model vs. experiments

    Quantum Pharmaceuticals has recently completed development of its in-house HERG-protein binding model. Since there is no 3D structure of HERG-protein available, the calculations envolved a number of fits and model assumptions. To see whether our data is notoverfitted, we compared the errors inour calculations with...

    How good are biological data – II: Trombine, GSK, GPCR

    Many bindign affinity prediction methods, such as scores and QSAR models, rely on availability of accurate information on binding constants. The figure on the left is a result of our sdf-file parser applied to trombine (blue) and GSK (yellow) binding data from BindingDB database. The...
