Hi guys, I am trying to construct my own symmetrical RMS matrix (lower half) for Butina clustering, by using GetBestRMS which considers symmetry.
I need to get the matrix with rms elements in correct order first. Here is what I did for testing, by just using GetConformerRMSMatrix and GetConformerRMS: from rdkit import Chem from rdkit.Chem import AllChem mh = Chem.AddHs(Chem.MolFromSmiles('OCCCN')) cids = AllChem.EmbedMultipleConfs(mh, numConfs=5, maxAttempts=1000, pruneRmsThresh=0.5, numThreads=0, randomSeed=1) m = Chem.RemoveHs(mh) mat_a = AllChem.GetConformerRMSMatrix(m, prealigned=False) print(mat_a) mat_b = [] count = len(cids) for i in range(count - 1): for j in range(i + 1, count): mat_b.append(AllChem.GetConformerRMS(m, cids[i], cids[j])) print(mat_b) mat_a: [0.660379357470512, 0.5803507133538487, 0.8111033830159597, 0.7063747192537949, 0.10437239857420268, 0.8858184043706921, 0.9292367217722529, 0.87 2233146598343, 0.6451929254710606, 0.9110647560331953] mat_b: [0.660379357470513, 0.5803507133538501, 0.7063747192537968, 0.929236721772254, 0.7045981421188982, 0.09521549761836234, 0.6494273777558387, 0.766 7663565750649, 0.6265013024617176, 0.6467365004737882] You see the two matrices do not match. Apparently, my mat_b gives me this rms list: [01, 02, 03, 04, 12, 13, 14, 23, 24, 34] (numbers are id pairs) According to the documentation, GetConformerRMSMatrix should give me the following matrix and so the list [ a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j ]: rmsmatrix = [ a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j ] After assign the id numbers: rmsmatrix = [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 0 1 a, 2 b, c, 3 d, e, f, 4 g, h, i, j ] So the mat_a from GetConformerRMSMatrix should be: [ a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j ] = [01, 02, 12, 03, 13, 23, 04, 14, 24, 34 ] This might tell the differences between mat_a and mat_b. But still, some numbers are very different, even after reordering manually. I cannot figure out why. Did I miss anything important? I am new to RDKit. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks a lot! Best, Leon
