KnowledgeSpace - a publicly available virtual chemistry space
نویسندگان
چکیده
Virtual high throughput screening of in-house compound collections and vendor catalogs is a validated approach in the quest for novel molecular entities. However, these libraries are small compared to the overall synthesizable number of compounds from validated “wet” chemical reactions in pharma companies or the public domain. In order to overcome this limitation, we designed a large virtual combinatorial chemistry space from publicly available combinatorial libraries that gives access to billions of synthetically accessible compounds. Together with FTrees, a fuzzy similarity calculator, the researcher has a means of searching this KnowledgeSpace for analogues to one or several query molecules within a few minutes. The resulting compounds not only exhibit similar properties to the query molecule(s), but also feature an annotation through which of the synthetic routes these molecules can be made. Results can be expected to be diverse, based on FTrees scaffold hopping capabilities, and provide ideas for hit follow-up into novel compound classes. In this contribution we present the design and properties of the KnowledgeSpace and other in-house chemistry spaces that build on the same strategy as well as validation of results and a number of successful applications including prospective results.

Visualization and Virtual Screening of the Chemical Universe Database GDB-17
The chemical universe database GDB-17 contains 166.4 billion molecules of up to 17 atoms of C, N, O, S, and halogens obeying rules for chemical stability, synthetic feasibility, and medicinal chemistry. GDB-17 was analyzed using 42 integer value descriptors of molecular structure which we term "Molecular Quantum Numbers" (MQN). Principal component analysis and representation of the (PC1, PC2)-p...

متن کاملThirdspace: The Trialectics of the Real, Virtual and Blended Spaces
This article aims to redefine the concept of Thirdspace and make a trilateral relationship between the three concepts of real space, virtual space and the user. To do so, not only the concept of Thirdspace has to be redefined, but also a new understanding of virtual space as a relatively independent space is required. This three-sided relation requires a new understanding of the relationship be...
