Prediction of mitochondrial targeting, or prediction of exclusion from mitochondria, of small-molecule xenobiotics (biocides, drugs, probes, toxins) can be achieved using an algorithm derived from QSAR modeling. Application of the algorithm requires knowing the chemical structures of all ionic species of the xenobiotic compound in question, and for certain numerical structure parameters (AI, CBN, log P, pK a, and Z) to be obtained for all such species. Procedures for specification of the chemical structures; estimation of the structure parameters; and application of the algorithm are described in an explicit protocol.
