TL;DR
Multivariate quantitative structure-activity relationships (MQSARs) were developed relating renin inhibition to the peptoid sequences variation, parametrized by the z-scales, and the number of building block sets could be reduced from six to three.
Abstract
Statistical experimental design provides an efficient approach for selecting the building blocks to span the structural space and increase the information content in a combinatorial library. A set of renin-inhibitors, hexapeptoids, is used to illustrate the approach. Multivariate quantitative structure-activity relationships (MQSARs) were developed relating renin inhibition to the peptoid sequences variation, parametrized by the z-scales. By using the information from the models, the number of building block sets could be reduced from six to three. Using a statistical molecular design (SMD) reduces the number of compounds from more than 100,000 down to 90. A second SMD was used for comparison, based on less prior knowledge. This gave a reduction from over 2 billion to 120 compounds.
