Abstract:
Bioconjugate networks refer to networks that are formed by connecting different molecules or particles (such as proteins, enzymes, or nanoparticles) through covalent or non-covalent interactions. These networks are often used in various biological and biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, biosensors, and tissue engineering. The specific properties and behavior of these networks depend on the types of molecules used and the nature of their interactions, which can be studied using various computational and experimental techniques. Farnesyl and geranyl groups are types of isoprenoid chains that are commonly found in various biological molecules such as proteins, lipids, and pigments. The addition of these groups to penicillin molecules may alter their physical and chemical properties, such as solubility, stability, and bioavailability. To gain a better understanding of the structure-property relationships of these antibiotics, this study computes various irregularity indices such as the Albertson index, irregularity index, total irregularity index, Randić irregularity index, and other degree-based indices for two types of sensitive bonds of bioconjugate networks. Numerical results and graphical representations are used to illustrate these findings. The obtained results provide valuable insights into the structure-property relationships of penicillins, which will aid in a better understanding of their behavior and developing more effective antibiotics.
