CoMFA and CoMSIA 3D-QSAR analysis of DMDP derivatives as anti-cancer agents.

ABSTRACT: Comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) based on three dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) studies were conducted on a series (78 compounds) of 2, 4-diamino-5-methyl-5-deazapteridine (DMDP) derivatives as potent anticancer agents. The best prediction were obtained with a CoMFA standard model (q(2) = 0.530, r(2) = 0.903) and with CoMSIA combined steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic and hydrogen bond donor fields (q(2) = 0.548, r(2) = 0.909). Both models were validated by a test set of ten compounds producing very good predictive r(2) values of 0.935 and 0.842, respectively. CoMFA and CoMSIA contour maps were then used to analyze the structural features of ligands to account for the activity in t
