Aim: 4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) has attracted increasing attention as an important target against tyrosinemia type I. This paper aimed to explore the structure–activity relationship of HPPD inhibitors with pyrazole scaffolds and to design novel HPPD inhibitors. Methodology & results: The best 3D-quantitative structure–activity relationships model was established by two different strategies based on 40 pyrazole scaffold-based analogs. Screening of molecular fragments by topomer technology, combined with molecular docking, 14 structures were identified for potential human HPPD inhibitory activity. Molecular dynamics results demonstrated that all the compounds obtained bound to the enzyme and possessed a satisfactory binding free energy. Conclusion: The quantitative structure–activity relationship of HPPD inhibitors of pyrazole scaffolds was clarified and 14 original structures with potential human HPPD inhibitory activity were obtained.

: Quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) was used to study the partition coefficient of some quinolones and their derivatives. These molecules are broad-spectrum antibiotic pharmaceutics. First, data were divided into two categories of train and test (validation) sets using random selection method. Second, three approaches including stepwise selection (STS) (forward), genetic algorithm (GA), and simulated annealing (SA) were used to select the descriptors, with the aim of examining the effect feature selection methods. To find the relation between descriptors and partition coefficient, multiple linear regression (MLR), principal component regression (PCR) and partial least squares (PLS) were used. QSAR study showed that the both regression and descriptor selection methods have vital role in the results. Different statistical metrics showed that the MLR-SA approach with (r2=0.96, q2=0.91, pred_r2=0.95) gives the best outcome. The proposed expression by MLR-SA approach can be used in the better design of novel quinolones and their derivatives.
