Spherical harmonics coefficients for ligand-based virtual screening of cyclooxygenase inhibitors.

Molecular descriptors are essential for many applications in computational chemistry, such as ligand-based similarity searching. Spherical harmonics have previously been suggested as comprehensive descriptors of molecular structure and properties. We investigate a spherical harmonics descriptor for...
