Abstract

Our CoMSIA model for benzoate and benzolactone mammalian vacuolar type (H+) ATPase inhibitors correlates well with bovine ATPase IC50 data (R2=0.968; Q2=0.553) and reliably predicts human kidney VATPase inhibition by lobatamide compounds (R=0.862). Accurately modeling oximidines (structurally underrepresented in the training set) requires perturbing the model with non-CoMSIA QSAR descriptors.
