Torus Molecule and Markush Structure Analysis within Oracle
Digital Chemistry • Company, formed Mid-2005 • Acquired Barnard Chemical Information (BCI) September 2005. • All previous BCI directors and staff are now employed by Digital Chemistry. • Aim to build on top of existing BCI technology and know-how, predominantly their Markush and Clustering methods • Now moving into patent space
Digital Chemistry • Product range covering • Cluster/diversity analysis • Markush library analysis • Chemical fingerprinting and dictionaries • Structure query conversion (MDL > Daylight) • Software distributed as • Toolkits (C, C++, Java, Perl, Python) • Web Services • Application suites
Torus overview • Torus:Server • Oracle based cartridge which integrates both Molecule and Markush structure storage and retrieval • SQL based interface, but Query can be supplied from SMARTS, ISIS/Draw or ChemDraw • Client may be Torus:View or any SQL supporting application, e.g. PipeLine Pilot or customer developed system due to open nature of SQL interface • Torus:View • Optional client for Torus:Server. Allows searching of Torus:Server database with graphical display of results.
Markush Structures • Presently within Torus:Server Markush structures have attachments defined in a number of ways (with unlimited members), including : Simple substitution : Nested R-Groups : Bridged R-Groups :
Torus: Server Function summary #1 Torus:Server supports a number of SQL based functions: • Structural equivalence check • Are two libraries/molecules equivalent • Sub-structure/Exact-structure searching • Into Mol and Markush • Overlap between Markush libraries • Also produce third Markush representing overlap • Similarity • Of molecule into Markush and between two Markush libraries • Property calculation, both in molecule and Markush • Supports all Lipinski rules, e.g. weight, LogP etc
Torus: Server Function summary #2 Torus:Server supports a number of SQL based functions: • Markush enumeration • Typical enumeration speeds > 100k structures per second • Query format conversion • MDL MOL/SKC to Daylight SMARTS • Miscellaneous utility functions
R1 H ( C H ) m 2 R3 R2 Markush Structures – current work • Currently support substituent variation (s-variation) – useful for combinatorial chemistry • Current and future work extends the Markush representation to cover further generalisations leading to a full Markush structure search for use in Patent systems: • Substituent variation (s-variation) • R1 can have a number of substitutions • Frequency variation (f-variation) • (CH2) repeats m times • Position variation (p-variation) • R2 has a number of attachment points • Homology variation (h-variation) • R3 is Alkyl, Methyl
Torus:Patent prototype demo • Live demonstration based up Thomson patent data, all data held on laptop • Schema contains patent PDF, patent ID and patent Markush structures • Database covers 8,709,704,764,382,349 specific compounds if enumerated • Oracle/Torus:Patent server running on laptop
Query creation • Queries against Torus:Patent database are easily drawn in ISIS/Draw (supporting all ISIS Query features) and transferred back into Torus:View ready for query against the patent database in Torus:Patent
Result viewing • Results of the query show patent structure along with the original patent in PDF format in a list
Result viewing • Patent chemistry structures can also be displayed. A viewer is available which allows easy viewing of all Markush core/R-Group members Markush core(s) Tree view of Markush structure R-Group members
Result viewing • The original PDF of each result patent can be viewed directly from Torus:View
