LINK The web-based RESP ESP charge DataBase is a free and new source of RESP and ESP atomic charge values and force field libraries for model systems and/or small molecules. R.E.DD.B. stores highly effective and reproducible charge values and molecular structures in the Tripos mol2 file format, information about the charge derivation procedure, scripts to integrate the charges and molecular topology in the most common molecular dynamics packages. Moreover, R.E.DD.B. allows users to freely store and distribute RESP or ESP charges and force field libraries to the scientific community, via a web interface. The first version of R.E.DD.B., released in January 2006, contains force field libraries for molecules as well as molecular fragments for standard residues and their analogs (amino acids, monosaccharides, nucleotides and ligands), hence covering a vast area of relevant biological applications.

LINK Local move is a Monte-Carlo approach to the problem of finding best-fitting lattice models for biopolymers. Starting from an initial discrete model (3D self-avoiding walk), it performs a sequence of elementary random alterations, called Local Moves. The original atoms coordinate, input as a PDB file, are then used to decide whether or not to accept the candidate move, either deterministically in a greedy way or stochastically by performing a simulated annealing. Through iterating the process for a reasonable amount of time, a model is obtained whose inter-atom distance is very close to the original model. Y. Ponty, R. Istrate, E. Porcelli, and P.

LINK Checkmol is a command-line utility program which reads molecular structure files in different formats (see below) and analyzes the input molecule for the presence of various functional groups and structural elements. At present, approx. 200 different functional groups are recognized. Output can be either clear text (English or German), a bitstring or its ASCII representation, or a set of special 8-character codes. This output can be easily placed into a database table, permitting the creation of chemical databases with a functional group search option. Here is a complete list of recognized function groups (PDF). Another output option of checkmol is a set of statistical values derived from a given molecule, which can also be used for quick retrieval from a database. These values include: the number of atoms, bonds, and rings, the number of differently hybridized carbon, oxgen, and nitrogen atoms, the number of C=O double bonds, the number of rings of different sizes, the number of rings containing nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, the number of aromatic rings, the number of heterocyclic rings, etc. The combination of all of these values for a given molecule represents some kind of "fingerprint" which is useful for rapid pre-selection in a database structure/substructure search prior to a full atom-by-atom match (see below). For a fully functional set of PHP scripts implementing such a web database (plus utility scripts for data import), please visit the MolDB4 homepage. Matchmol complements the capabilities of checkmol. It compares two (or more) molecular structures and determines whether one of them is a substructure of the other one. This is done by a full atom-by-atom comparison of the input structures. Thus, matchmol can be used as a back-end program for structure/substructure search operations in chemical databases. Find chemical groups - parse molecules

LINK The knowledge about interactions between proteins and small molecules is essential for the understanding of molecular and cellular functions. However, information on such interactions is widely dispersed across numerous databases and the literature. To facilitate access to this data, STITCH (Ôsearch tool for interactions of chemicalsÕ) integrates information about interactions from metabolic pathways, crystal structures, binding experiments and drugÐtarget relationships. Inferred information from phenotypic effects, text mining and chemical structure similarity is used to predict relations between chemicals. STITCH further allows exploring the network of chemical relations, also in the context of associated binding proteins. Each proposed interaction can be traced back to the original data sources.

LINK The molecular basis of drug action is often not well understood. This is partly because the very abundant and diverse information generated in the past decades on drugs is hidden in millions of medical articles or textbooks. Therefore, we developed a one-stop data warehouse, SuperTarget that integrates drug-related information about medical indication areas, adverse drug effects, drug metabolization, pathways and Gene Ontology terms of the target proteins. An easy-to-use query interface enables the user to pose complex queries, for example to find drugs that target a certain pathway, interacting drugs that are metabolized by the same cytochrome P450 or drugs that target the same protein but are metabolized by different enzymes. Furthermore, we provide tools for 2D drug screening and sequence comparison of the targets. The database contains more than 2500 target proteins, which are annotated with about 7300 relations to 1500 drugs; the vast majority of entries have pointers to the respective literature source. A subset of these drugs has been annotated with additional binding information and indirect interactions and is available as a separate resource called Matador. SuperTarget and Matador are available at http://insilico.charite.de/supertarget and http://matador.embl.de.

LINK Marvel Library - A Collection of Over 9000 Unique Compounds. History: The Marvel Storeroom was founded in 1961.Ê It began with the donation of the personal compound collection of Professor Carl Shipp Marvel to the UIUC Chemistry Department upon his retirement in 1961. It served as a free chemical repository for valuable, but no longer needed chemicals to be shared among all members of the Department. This resource was discontinued in 2006, as the questionable quality and identity of much of the library posed a safety risk. Prior to this event, the Hergenrother group went through the Storeroom and salvaged usable compounds with interesting structures. These compounds were added to the Marvel Library Compound Collection (MLCC), aÊ high-throughput screening (HTS) library in a 384-well format in DMSO maintained by the Hergenrother group. All compounds synthesized by the Hergenrother group are submitted to this respository for storage and screening purposes. The MLCC also contains compounds contributed from various research groups on campus. The compounds contained in the library are a testament to the diverse, rigorous research that has made the University of Illinois a world leader in the chemical sciences.

LINK CONTACT THE AUTHORS OR GET THE APPLICATION IN THE SUPPL. We propose a systematic method to predict ligand-protein interactions, even for targets with no known 3D structure and few or no known ligands. Following the recent chemogenomics trend, we adopt a cross-target view and attempt to screen the chemical space against whole families of proteins simultaneously. The lack of known ligand for a given target can then be compensated by the availability of known ligands for similar targets. We test this strategy on three important classes of drug targets, namely enzymes, G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) and ion channels, and report dramatic improvements in prediction accuracy over classical ligand-based virtual screening, in particular for targets with few or no known ligands.

LINK PharmaGist: Predicting molecular interactions is a major goal in rational drug design. Pharmacophore, which is the spatial arrangement of features that is essential for a molecule to interact with a specific target receptor, is important for achieving this goal. PharmaGist is a freely available web server for pharmacophore detection. The employed method is ligand based. It does not require the structure of the target receptor. Instead, the input is a set of structures of drug-like molecules that are known to bind to the receptor. We compute candidate pharmacophores by multiple flexible alignments of the input ligands. The main innovation of this approach is that the flexibility of the input ligands is handled explicitly and in deterministic manner within the alignment process. The method is highly efficient, where a typical run with up to 32 drug-like molecules takes seconds to a few minutes on a stardard PC. Another important characteristic of the method is the capability of detecting pharmacophores shared by different subsets of input molecules. This capability is a key advantage when the ligands belong to different binding modes or when the input contains outliers. PharmaGist: a webserver for ligand-based pharmacophore detection.

LINK NEWLEAD is a computer program for the automatic generation of candidate structures. The input for the program is a set of fragments in the three-dimensional orientation corresponding to a given pharmacophore model. The treatment consists in connecting the fragments with spacers assembled from small chemical entities (atoms, chains or ring moieties). The results are new structures containing the fragments in the orientation defined in the input. The program offers the opportunity of rapidly applying a pharmacophore model in drug-design by generating automatically a set of chemical structures conforming to the model.

Unlike most other tools or servers, PROTEUS2 bundles signal peptide identification, transmembrane helix prediction, transmembrane beta-strand prediction, secondary structure prediction (for soluble proteins) and homology modeling (i.e. 3D structure generation) into a single prediction pipeline. Using a combination of progressive multi-sequence alignment, structure-based mapping, hidden Markov models, multi-component neural nets and up-to-date databases of known secondary structure assignments, PROTEUS2 is able to achieve among the highest reported levels of predictive accuracy for signal peptides (Q2=94%), membrane spanning helices (Q2=87%) and secondary structure (Q3 score of 81.3% ). PROTEUS2's homology modeling services also provide high quality 3D models that compare favorably with those generated by SWISS-MODEL (within 0.2  RMSD). The average PROTEUS2 prediction takes ~2 minutes per query sequence. Source code is also freely available. Scott Montgomerie, Joseph A.

LINK MolAxis is a tool for the identification of high clearance pathways or corridors which represent molecular channels in the complement space of proteins. It is extremely efficient because it samples the medial axis of the complement of the molecule, reducing the problem dimension to two, since the medial axis is composed of surface patches. It is designed to analyze proteins channels, calculate pore dimensions and analyze atom accessibility. MolAxis reads files in the standard Protein Data Bank format (PDB) containing a single frame or multiple frames generated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. MolAxis handles two distinct scenarios: It computes channels that connect a single point (like an inner chamber) to the bulk solvent, and it also computes transmembrane (TM) channels. MolAxis has a friendly web interface (see the Web Server tab). It also has a stand-alone version, statically compiled for linux, which can be downloaded. Eitan Yaffe, Dan Fishelovitch, Haim J.

LINK AutoLigand code is included in the AutoDockTools release 1.4 and higher. See also http://www.scripps.edu/~rharris. To use, here are the advise of Rodney Harris: To run AutoLigand, first, make a 1 A grid box over the whole receptor (or the portion you are interested in). This is best done in a separate directory as docking runs are normally done with a 0.375 A grid. Choose to Set Map Types directly and choose C, OA, HD. To run AutoLigand from ADT, pull-down FILE/Browse Commands, then choose AutoDockTools, then AutoLigandCommand, click Load Selected Module and then dismiss the window. Next, pull-down the Compute menu and select AutoLigand/Run AutoLigand. To run AutoLigand from the command line, type: python [PATH]AutoLigand.py which will give you a usage statement. You need to run it from the directory where you have your map files. A new version of AutoLigand will be released in 2009 Binding site prediction for drug design. Works with Pymol
