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 |
