[Rdkit-discuss] Notes from the 2013 UGM

2013-10-22 Thread Greg Landrum
Hi,

Looks like I'm never going to have time to do a really thorough write up of
the UGM. In the interests of getting something out there, I guess I will do
something short.

From my point of view, the UGM was a great success. George did a great job
of getting everything organized, and everything went very smoothly. We had
an interesting set of talks, some good questions and discussions during the
talks, and a couple of very nice social activities at the pub.

The slides and ipython notebooks for many of the talks are available in
github:
https://github.com/rdkit/UGM_2013

A few things to note from the talks:
1) The code for PDB handling, MMFF94, and Open3DAlign is now all on the
trunk. It will be in the upcoming release.
2) Jameed updated the MMPA code in Contrib; the new version is definitely
worth checking out, as is Jameed's tutorial on how to use it (part of the
materials linked to above).
3) Jameed (and his employer) also contributed an implementation of the
Fraggle similarity algorithm described in his talk. The command line tools
are now in Contrib and the main similarity code is in
$RDBASE/rdkit/Chem/Fraggle. This will be in the upcoming release.

The roundtable produced a long list of ideas for future features/changes.
Some of these are already done, the rest will land in github as I manage to
find time.

We also had a discussion about the frequency of RDKit releases. It seems
that the quarterly release cycle creates extra work for the community as
well as me, so we're going to switch to doing releases every six months. If
a critical bug is found (and fixed!) I'll do a patch release, but new
features and improvements will only be released twice a year. Anyone who
wants to stay on the bleeding edge can, of course, track the version of
the code in github. That doesn't get checked in without passing tests on at
least one platform. If this slower release cycle ends up creating problems,
we can always go back to three or four times a year.

Many many thanks to everyone for participating; in particular everyone who
did a presentation or tutorial and George for the organization. I'm already
looking forward to next year!

Dear Greg,

thanks for your answer.
This morning I have freshly compiled the whole package (rdkit + cartridge) and 
now it works!
I can not say what has caused the error in the first place, please excuse me 
for bothering all of you.
Thanks a lot for all your help and this great package! I could literally not do 
my work without it!

For other Arch Linux users I would like to mention that I have downgraded bison 
from version 3.0 to 2.7 (bison27 from AUR) and also have downgraded postgresql 
and postgresql-libs from 9.3.1-3 to 9.2.4-2, since the rdkit cartridge of 
RDKit_2013_06_1.tgz won't compile against Postgresql 9.3.x because of the 
removal of the typedef for int4 in Postgresql 9.3.x 
(http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/release-9-3.html).

Kind regards,
Axel

I am a medicinal chemist and am using RDKit and the Postgresql cartridge with 
much success in a small startup project as the backbone for the chemical / 
biological database and for cheminformatics (Lipinski and such, substructure 
and similarity searches, ...).
 
Welcome. Thanks for letting us know about your use of the RDKit!
 

I have just upgraded from RDKit_2013_03_2.tgz to RDKit_2013_06_1.tgz on Arch 
Linux (but using bison 2.7) and as far as I can tell, the upgrade was ok, rdkit 
is working fine in IPython.
But in postgresql, I now get this error:
  psql (9.2.4)
  db=# select cpd_no, mol_to_smiles(mol) as smiles, lab_code from chem_cpd, 
chem_batch
  where cpd_pk = 150 and cpd_pk = cpd_fk;
  ERROR:  could not load library /usr/lib/postgresql/rdkit.so: 
/usr/lib/postgresql/rdkit.so: undefined symbol: palloc
  db=#
I have rebuilt the cartridge of the new version, of course.
Do you have any ideas what might cause this error ?
 
This is a strange one. To diagnose it I am going to need a bit more info. 
Please go to the $RDBASE/Code/PgSQL/rdkit directory, remove the file rdkit.so, 
and then send the output of these three commands:
 
  make
  make install
  make installcheck
 
the first will show which libraries are being linked into the extension file, 
the second where the extension file is being copied to, and the third will 
confirm that the extension works on its own.
 
If those commands complete without error, please run this to display which 
extensions are connected:
 
  psql -c select * from pg_available_extension_versions where name ='rdkit' 
chembl_16
 
replace chembl_16 with whatever your database name is, based on the above it 
looks like it may be db.
 
Best,

2013-10-22 Thread Greg Landrum
I just realized that I have not yet posted anything to let people know of
the existence of the RDKit blog:
http://rdkit.blogspot.ch/

I'm planning on using that space to document the results of small
experiments with the RDKit. The current content is pretty representative of
what you can expect.

Whenever possible, I will do these using the IPython notebook and also make
the notebook (and associated data) available through github here:
https://github.com/greglandrum/rdkit_blog

I'm going to try to do a post a week. I won't be announcing posts here, but
there is a feed (http://rdkit.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default) and I will
also post to google+.

Re: [Rdkit-discuss] Chemistry 101 question...

2013-10-22 Thread James Davidson
Hi JP, Nik, Greg, RDKitters

The question about the lipophilicity (or otherwise) of nitro groups was 
interesting to me...  I came from a CNS background, where there was, of course, 
a stricter requirement for molecules to be suitably lipophilic to cross the 
blood-brain barrier.  My recollection was that the observed lipophilicity of 
nitro groups was dependent on their local environments (ie electron rich / +m 
gave more polar character, and electron poor / -m gave more polar character)... 
 But rather than rely on my hazy recollections, I decided to have a quick look 
back at some historical reverse-phase analytical LC data.

What I did was took all retention times (in mins) under one well-used gradient 
method, and generated the matched-molecular pairs using George's KNIME node.  I 
was then only interested in *[H]  [*][N+](=O)[O-] transformations, so 
filtered-down to just those changes involving 5 atoms in the transformation 
(because this was quicker than chemically searching!).  I then grouped across 
the examples of transformations to give some average changes in retention time, 
plus n, range, sd:

So on average over the 35 examples of H -- NO2 the change made the molecules 
slightly more lipophilic (or, at least, they were retained slightly longer on a 
C18 column).
I expect there is much more data-digging that could be done - particularly with 
larger data sets, and (maybe) with proper logP / logD measurements; but for now 
I am going to stick to thinking NO2 groups can be lipophilic additions(!)

Cheers

James

Hi James,
Interesting. I wonder if this is also dependent on the transport phase that was 
used. Do you have any info on that? Was it a typical 10% MeOH or more something 
with dichlormethane?

Re: [Rdkit-discuss] bug in rdMolTransforms.SetDihedralDeg?

2013-10-22 Thread Paolo Tosco
Dear Michal,

I have the impression that you wanted to select atoms 5,6,7,8, which do 
indicate the bond between the two rings, but the RDKit counts atoms 
starting from 0, so the tuple

atoms=(5,6,7,8)

should probably read

atoms=(4,5,6,7)

and this actually works; instead, the first tuple indicates a bond 
inside a ring.

I hope that I understood the problem correctly; if this is not the case 
please let me know.

Kind regards,
Paolo

Re: [Rdkit-discuss] Chemistry 101 question...

Hi Nik,

Nik wrote:
 Interesting. I wonder if this is also dependent on the transport phase that 
 was used. Do you have any info on that? Was it a typical 10% MeOH or more 
 something with dichlormethane?

I dug-out the conditions:
LC retention time Method A refers to elution of a sample through an XTERRA RP18 
(50 mm x 4.6 mm) 5 µm column under gradient conditions.  The initial eluent 
comprises 50% Methanol (pump-A) and 50% of a 10 mM aqueous ammonium acetate 
solution containing 5% IPA (pump-B) at a flow rate of 2 mL/min.  After 1 min, a 
gradient is run over 5 min to an end point of 80% pump-A and 20% pump-B, which 
is isocratically maintained for a further 3 min.  UV peak detection is 
generally carried out at a wavelength of 220 nm.


I should also say that, in my experience, even under normal-phase conditions 
(ie silica column and organic eluent) nitro-aromatics tend to behave 
'greasily'.  Who in big pharma wants to mine some nitration reaction data to 
pull out TLC plate Rf data (normal phase) + LC retention (reverse phase)?  I 
think your DB may be bigger than ours!  : )

Cheers

James
