Make the most of the ChEMBL interface with our newest webinar! Before starting a new drug discovery project, it’s useful to compile existing data on compounds and targets of interest. Open access bioacti...

We've just released a webinar that provides background on the #chembl database alongside worked examples highlighting some common scenarios in drug discovery initiatives.

We have gone back in time and generated SQLite files for all releases of #ChEMBL from version 1 onwards making it easier to carry out analyses across ChEMBL versions.

We would very much appreciate people taking the time to fill our impact survey. This helps makes the case for support for our resources. Survey closes on July 16th.

Last but by no means least, we chose to take a reversed approach and check which of our colocalised IBD genes were ALREADY drug targets for non-IBD diseases. With a little help from
@chembl.bsky.social
and
@opentargets.org
, we noticed two particularly interesting cases: PSEN2 and NDUFAF1…

OPSIN chemical name-to-structure tool moves to EMBL-EBI The Open Parser for Systematic IUPAC Nomenclature (OPSIN) allows users to convert chemical names into structures and machine-readable formats.

As chemical data grows, turning names into machine-readable structures is key for discovery, automation, and data integration.

OPSIN – now hosted at EMBL-EBI – helps solve this by converting IUPAC names into chemical structures and other machine-readable formats.
