MPO explorer: automatically building a scoring profile with rule induction
In this example we will use the Profile Builder in StarDrop’s MPO Explorer module to derive a multi-parameter scoring profile, based on a CNS data set.
Guided multi-parameter optimisation of 2D and 3D SAR
This SeeSAR and ADME QSAR worked example uses a combination of 2D and 3D methods to understand and optimise a virtual library of Heat Shock Protein 90 (HSP90) inhibitors.
Automatic QSAR model building and validation
This example explores the application of the Auto-Modeller module to build a QSAR model of potency against the Muscurinic Acetylcholine M5 receptor, based on public domain Ki data. The resulting model is applied to novel compound to predict their properties and visualise the SAR.
