Hi Thomas,

There isn't currently anything there.
The RDKit had a USR (and USRCAT) implementation a few years ago, but we
removed it because of the patent on USR. Now that the patent has lapsed,
there's an active PR to re-integrate those descriptors.

There's also a PR from Guillaume Godin that implements a large number of 3D
descriptors that are known from the DRAGON software. I'm still reviewing
that one, but it should be integrated in the not-too-distant future.

Is there any particular descriptor that you're looking for?
