Re: CCL:Molecular vs. Macroscopic Properties



Hi Tim
 It is possible to correlate the sweetness of molecules with partial
 surface integrals of a surface related function which we call free
 energy surface density (FESD). Our method is in principle an
 extrapolation of the macroscopic free energy of binding or transfer
 to the solvent accessible surface of a molecule.  You can find a
 discussion of the method and an application to sweetness recognition
 of some sucrose derivates in our paper:
 R. Jäger, F. Schmidt, B. Schilling, J. Brickmann, Localization
 and quantification of hydrophobicity: The molecular free energy
 density (MolFESD) concept and its application to sweetness recognition,
 J. Comput.-Aided Mol. Design, 14 (2000) 631.
 I hope this will help you
