| Abstract | The re-emergence of tuberculosis infections, which are resistant to conventional drug therapy, has steadily risen in the last decade and as a result of that, fluoroquinolone drugs are being used as the second line of action. But there is hardly any study to examine specific structure activity relationships of quinolone antibacterials against mycobacteria. In this paper, an attempt has been made to establish a quantitative structure activity relationship modeling for a series of quinolone compounds against Mycobacterium fortuitum and Mycobacterium smegmatis. Due to lack of sufficient physicochemical data for the anti-mycobacterial compounds, it becomes very difficult to develop predictive methods based on experimental data. The present paper is an effort for the development of QSARs from the standpoint of physicochemical, constitutional, geometrical, electrostatic and topological indices. Molecular descriptors have been calculated solely from the chemical structure of N-1, C-7 and 8 substituted quinolone compounds and ridge regression models have been developed which can explain a better structure-activity relationship. Consideration of an intermolecular similarity analysis approach that led to a successful computer program development in PERL language has been used for comparing the influence of various molecular descriptors in different data subsets. The comparison of relative effectiveness of the calculated descriptors in our ridge regression model gives rise to some interesting results. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
