Description of the standard physicochemical properties employed for the models training

Physicochemical property Abbreviated representation in pfeature Description
Positively charged PCP_PC A measure of the residual positive charge resident on an octapeptide
Negatively charged PCP_NC A measure of the residual negative charge on an octapeptide
Neutral towards water PCP_NE Answers the question, how neutral is the octapeptide towards water
Polarity PCP_PO A measure of how polar an octapeptide is
Non-polarity PCP_NP A measure of how non-polar an octapeptide is
Aliphaticity PCP_AL Gives the measure of how aliphatic the octapeptide is
Cyclicity PCP_CY Gives a measure of how many cyclic rings are present in an octapeptide
Aromaticity PCP_AR Answers the question, how aromatic is the octapeptide?
Acidity PCP_AC Gives a measure of how acidic an octapeptide is
Basicity PCP_BS Gives the measure of how basic an octapeptide is
Neutral pH PCP_NE_pH Measures the pH of an octapeptide under neutral condition
Hydrophilicity PCP_HB Measures the tendency of water to include non-polar molecules
Hydrophobicity PCP_HL Measures the tendency of water to exclude non-polar molecules
Sulfur Content PCP_SC Gives the proportion of Sulfur in an octapeptide
