The ChEMBL database in 2017
نویسندگان
چکیده
ChEMBL is an open large-scale bioactivity database (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembl), previously described in the 2012 and 2014 Nucleic Acids Research Database Issues. Since then, alongside the continued extraction of data from the medicinal chemistry literature, new sources of bioactivity data have also been added to the database. These include: deposited data sets from neglected disease screening; crop protection data; drug metabolism and disposition data and bioactivity data from patents. A number of improvements and new features have also been incorporated. These include the annotation of assays and targets using ontologies, the inclusion of targets and indications for clinical candidates, addition of metabolic pathways for drugs and calculation of structural alerts. The ChEMBL data can be accessed via a web-interface, RDF distribution, data downloads and RESTful web-services.

PPDMs—a resource for mapping small molecule bioactivities from ChEMBL to Pfam-A protein domains
UNLABELLED PPDMs is a resource that maps small molecule bioactivities to protein domains from the Pfam-A collection of protein families. Small molecule bioactivities mapped to protein domains add important precision to approaches that use protein sequence searches alignments to assist applications in computational drug discovery and systems and chemical biology. We have previously proposed a ma...
متن کاملPRE-render Content Using Tiles (PRECUT). 1. Large-Scale Compound-Target Relationship Analyses
Visualizing a complex network is computationally intensive process and depends heavily on the number of components in the network. One way to solve this problem is not to render the network in real time. PRE-render Content Using Tiles (PRECUT) is a process to convert any complex network into a pre-rendered network. Tiles are generated from pre-rendered images at different zoom levels, and navig...
متن کاملAn algorithm to identify functional groups in organic molecules
BACKGROUND The concept of functional groups forms a basis of organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry, toxicity assessment, spectroscopy and also chemical nomenclature. All current software systems to identify functional groups are based on a predefined list of substructures. We are not aware of any program that can identify all functional groups in a molecule automatically. The algorithm present...
متن کاملChEMBL web services: streamlining access to drug discovery data and utilities
ChEMBL is now a well-established resource in the fields of drug discovery and medicinal chemistry research. The ChEMBL database curates and stores standardized bioactivity, molecule, target and drug data extracted from multiple sources, including the primary medicinal chemistry literature. Programmatic access to ChEMBL data has been improved by a recent update to the ChEMBL web services (versio...
متن کاملMining the ChEMBL Database: An Efficient Chemoinformatics Workflow for Assembling an Ion Channel-Focused Screening Library
The ChEMBL database was mined to efficiently assemble an ion channel-focused screening library. The compiled library consists of 3241 compounds representing 123 templates across nine ion channel categories. Compounds in the screening library are annotated with their respective ion channel category to facilitate back-tracing of prospective molecular targets from phenotypic screening results. The...
