New Malaria-Data release


We are very pleased to announce that a new release of the malaria-data resource (MMV_2) is now freely available here

The release was prepared on 1st March 2013 and contains:
  • 362,845 compound records
  • 280,985 compounds
  • 3,288,801 activities
  • 190,243 assays
  • 5,431 targets
  • 24,200 documents
The database contains several new datasets, including OSDD, Harvard and WHO-TDR Malaria screening data. Furthermore, the new interface has adopted the new look and feel features recently introduced  in the main ChEMBL interface, such as the redesigned search hits tables and document report card.

As usual, the interface provides compound, assay and target keyword search capabilities, as well as structure-based and sequence-based search functionality for compounds and protein targets respectively. Finally, structure look-ups are offered out-of-the-box via the UniChem cross-references. 

Please see MMV_2_release_notes.txt for full details of all changes in this release.

This is probably the most comprehensive public malaria data resource available but we aspire to broaden the coverage even more. If you or your academic group would like to deposit malaria screening data, please get in touch!

We greatly acknowledge the support and collaboration with the MMV.

George and Shaun

SureChEMBL gets a facelift

    Dear SureChEMBL users, Over the past year, we’ve introduced several updates to the SureChEMBL platform, focusing on improving functionality while maintaining a clean and intuitive design. Even small changes can have a big impact on your experience, and our goal remains the same: to provide high-quality patent annotation with a simple, effective way to find the data you need. What’s Changed? After careful consideration, we’ve redesigned the landing page to make your navigation smoother and more intuitive. From top to bottom: - Announcements Section: Stay up to date with the latest news and updates directly from this blog. Never miss any update! - Enhanced Search Bar: The main search bar is still your go-to for text searches, still with three pre-filter radio buttons to quickly narrow your results without hassle. - Improved Query Assistant: Our query assistant has been redesigned and upgraded to help you craft more precise queries. It now includes five operator options: E...

Improvements in SureChEMBL's chemistry search and adoption of RDKit

    Dear SureChEMBL users, If you frequently rely on our "chemistry search" feature, today brings great news! We’ve recently implemented a major update that makes your search experience faster than ever. What's New? Last week, we upgraded our structure search engine by aligning it with the core code base used in ChEMBL . This update allows SureChEMBL to leverage our FPSim2 Python package , returning results in approximately one second. The similarity search relies on 256-bit RDKit -calculated ECFP4 fingerprints, and a single instance requires approximately 1 GB of RAM to run. SureChEMBL’s FPSim2 file is not currently available for download, but we are considering generating it periodicaly and have created it once for you to try in Google Colab ! For substructure searches, we now also use an RDKit -based solution via SubstructLibrary , which returns results several times faster than our previous implementation. Additionally, structure search results are now sorted by...

Here's a nice Christmas gift - ChEMBL 35 is out!

Use your well-deserved Christmas holidays to spend time with your loved ones and explore the new release of ChEMBL 35!            This fresh release comes with a wealth of new data sets and some new data sources as well. Examples include a total of 14 datasets deposited by by the ASAP ( AI-driven Structure-enabled Antiviral Platform) project, a new NTD data se t by Aberystwyth University on anti-schistosome activity, nine new chemical probe data sets, and seven new data sets for the Chemogenomic library of the EUbOPEN project. We also inlcuded a few new fields that do impr ove the provenance and FAIRness of the data we host in ChEMBL:  1) A CONTACT field has been added to the DOCs table which should contain a contact profile of someone willing to be contacted about details of the dataset (ideally an ORCID ID; up to 3 contacts can be provided). 2) In an effort to provide more detailed information about the source of a deposited dat...

Release of ChEMBL 33

We are pleased to announce the release of ChEMBL 33! This fresh release comes with a few new data soures and also some new features: we added bioactivity data for understudied SLC targets from the RESOLUTE project and included a flag for Natural Products and for Chemical Probes. An annotation for the ACTION_TYPE of a measurement was included for approx. 270 K bioactivities. We also time-stamped every document in ChEMBL with their CREATION_DATE! Have fun playing around with ChEMBL 33 over the summer and please send feedback via chembl-help@ebi.ac.uk .   ChEMBL database version ChEMBL 33 release notes ___________________________________________ # This version of the database, prepared on 31/05/2023 contains:      2,399,743 compounds (of which 2,372,674 have mol files)      3,051,613 compound records (non-unique compounds)        20,334,684 activities         1,610,596 assays  ...
