GQSAR is a breakthrough patent pending methodology that significantly enhances the use of QSAR as an approach for new molecule design. As a predictive tool for activity, this method is significantly superior to conventional 3D and 2D QSAR.

In this method, every molecule of the data set is considered as a set of fragments, the fragmentation scheme being either template based or user defined.

The descriptors are evaluated for each fragment and a relationship between these fragment descriptors is formed with the activity of the whole molecule.

Unlike conventional QSAR, with the GQSAR, esearchers get critically important site specific clues within a molecule where a particular descriptor needs to be modified.

GQSAR approach builds upon the basic focus of QSAR by applying the knowledge gained in the field over the past four decades in terms of molecular descriptors, statistical modeling etc.

"This new QSAR methodology gives QSARpro, a decisive edge over conventional QSAR. The ability to combine kNN with MFA is a unique approach which I came across only in QSARpro from VLife. It is now a method of choice in my research."
