Abstract | Antimicrobial peptides are host defense peptides being viewed as replacement to broad-spectrum antibiotics due to varied advantages. Hepatitis is the commonest infectious disease of liver, affecting 500 million globally with reported adverse side effects in treatment therapy. Antimicrobial peptides active against hepatitis are called as anti-hepatitis peptides (AHP). In current work, we present Extratrees and Random Forests based Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) regression modeling using extracted sequence based descriptors for prediction of the anti-hepatitis activity. The Extra-trees regression model yielded a very high performance in terms coefficient of determination (R2) as 0.95 for test set and 0.7 for the independent dataset. We hypothesize that the developed model can further be used to identify potentially active anti-hepatitis peptides with a high level of reliability. |
