  • Patent number: 7146278
    Abstract: A method predicts at least one property of a candidate molecule. A set of reference molecules is classified as either possessing or not possessing at least one property. A subset of the molecules is selected from which a plurality of marker molecules is chosen. The marker molecules are used to predict whether the candidate molecule possesses at least one property.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: December 5, 2006
    Assignee: Accelrys Software Inc.
    Inventors: William J. Egan, Steven L. Dixon
  • Patent number: 7113870
    Abstract: The polar surface area of molecules is computed without reference to three dimensional molecular structures using a linear equation incorporating counts of nitrogens, oxygens, and related atom clusters. Methods and systems for predicting intestinal absorption and blood brain barrier penetration of candidate compounds use the polar surface area and the octanol/water partition coefficient as descriptors.
