Research ArticleOpen accessTheoretical Investigation of Two Antiemetic Drugs at DFT LevelKhalil Errahmane Kanouni, Yacine BenguerbaThe geometries and the bonding properties have been predicted for two antiemetic drugs using Density Functional Theory method (DFT). Mulliken population and frontier molecular orbital analysis with the determination of the physicochemical properties was performed using the Amsterdam Density Functional package (ADF). To calculate the exchange-correlation energy, the Generalized Gradient Approximation of Becke-Perdew (GGA-BP) was used. The most important finding … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 14 May 2020 · 11,499 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessQSAR Modeling of Thirty Active Compounds for the Inhibition of the Acetylcholinesterase EnzymeNour El Houda Hammoudi, Yacine Benguerba, Widad SobhiThis work aims at developing a reliable and predictive QSAR model which allows, on one hand, an exploration of the main molecular descriptors responsible for the inhibitory activity towards the Acetylcholinesterase enzyme and, on the other hand, predict the inhibitory activity of new compounds before testing them experimentally. This study involves a series of DL0410 and its 29 DL0410 derivatives. … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2020 · 11,431 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessThe Development of New Molecules Having Antiemetic Activity Using Molecular ModelingKhalil Errahmane Kanouni, Yacine BenguerbaThe solubility of a drug in water or in the blood represents the most desired parameter in medicine. Our aim is to obtain molecules with properties more effective than those of metoclopramide. In this work, two molecules with high solubility are constructed. Metoclopramide (a benzamide derivative) is a dopamine receptor antagonist used as an antiemetic drug. Its solubility in water … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2020 · 6,670 accessesView PDF Cite
