ChEMBL Structure Pipeline

ChEMBL protocols used to standardise and salt strip molecules. First used in ChEMBL 26.

Check the wiki and paper[1] for a detailed description of the different processes.

Installation

From source:

git clone https://github.com/chembl/ChEMBL_Structure_Pipeline.git
pip install ./ChEMBL_Structure_Pipeline

with pip:

pip install chembl_structure_pipeline

with conda:

conda install -c conda-forge chembl_structure_pipeline

Usage

Standardise a compound (info)

Check a compound (info)

The checker assesses the quality of a structure. It highlights specific features or issues in the structure that may need to be revised. Together with the description of the issue, the checker process returns a penalty score (between 0-9) which reflects the seriousness of the issue (the higher the score, the more critical is the issue)
