Abstract

The quantitative structure-activity relationship of a set of 40 octopaminergic agonists against receptor 2 in cockroach nervous tissue, was analyzed using molecular-field analysis (MFA). MFA on the study set of those compounds evaluated effectively the energy between a probe and a molecular model at a series of points defined by a rectangular grid. Contour surfaces for the molecular fields were presented and the results provided useful information in the characterization and differentiation of octopaminergic receptor.
