This makes biological sense because: - HOMO/LUMO energy gaps indicate how easily electrons can be transferred (relates to molecule's reactivity and interaction with biological membranes) - Electronegativity describes how strongly atoms attract electrons (affects hydrogen bonding and polar interactions with membrane proteins) - Molecular hardness/softness relates to polarizability (impacts how molecules deform when passing through tight junctions) + IMPROVEMENT: +9.83% over baseline (+0.0756 AUC points) This substantial improvement suggests quantum mechanical properties capture BBB permeability mechanisms that simple molecular descriptors miss. + GENERALIZATION: For NEW drug candidates, quantum descriptors are essential for accurate BBB permeability prediction. Standard molecular weight, LogP, and TPSA alone are insufficient. + PRACTICAL APPLICATION: - Prioritize quantum chemical calculations (DFT) in early drug discovery - Molecules with moderate HOMO-LUMO gaps (~4-6 eV) tend to cross BBB better - High electronegativity differences suggest poor BBB penetration - Soft molecules (low hardness) may have better membrane permeability """) print(f"\n2.
