    Cheminformatics Development Platform

    OpenEye provides a large suite of cheminformatics toolkits to solve a wide variety of problems in molecule handling and representation.

    Our core cheminformatics toolkit, OEChem, is the basis for all the handling of molecules that takes place within any of OpenEye’s tools.

    OpenEye provides access to these technologies in a very broad way, covering a wide variety of modern operating systems (OS X, RedHat, Ubuntu, Windows) and languages (C++, C#, Java, Python), so we work wherever you work.

    Our 6-month release cycle allows us to adapt to the rapidly changing landscape of platforms preferred by our customers, but at the same time perform the extensive testing to ensure the reliability that is a hallmark of OpenEye’s tools. To help users get started with our cheminformatics toolkits we provide extensive documentation and a large number of example scripts.

    For more complex problems we provide a Python cookbook, which contains complete solutions to problems that require the use of two or more toolkits in combination. For those seeking even more in-depth assistance when using our toolkits to solve their problems we offer a custom coding service.

    Cheminformatics

    The Cheminformatics suite of toolkits provides the core foundation upon which all the OpenEye applications and remaining toolkits are built.

    • OEChem TK Core chemistry handling and representation as well as molecule file I/O
    • OEDepict TK 2D Molecule rendering and depiction
    • Grapheme™ TK Advanced molecule rendering and report generation
    • GraphSim TK 2D molecular similarity (e.g. fingerprints)
    • Lexichem TK name-to-structure, structure-to-name, foreign language translation
    • MolProp TK Molecular property calculation and filtering
    • Quacpac TK Tautomer enumeration and charge assignment
    • MedChem TK Matched molecular pair analysis, fragmentation utilities, and molecular complexity metrics

    Modeling

    The Modeling suite of toolkits provides the core functionality underlying OpenEye's defining principle that shape & electrostatics are the two fundamental descriptors determining intermolecular interactions. Many of the toolkits in the Modeling suite are directly associated with specific OpenEye applications and can, therefore, be used to create new or extend existing functionality associated with those applications.

    • OEChem TK Core chemistry handling and representation as well as molecule file I/O
    • FastROCS™ TK Real-time shape similarity for virtual screening, lead hopping & shape clustering
    • OEDocking TK Molecular docking and scoring
    • Omega TK Conformer generation
    • Shape TK 3D shape description, optimization, and overlap
    • SiteHopper TK Rapid Comparison of Protein Binding Sites
    • Spicoli TK Surface generation, manipulation, and interrogation
    • Spruce TK Protein preparation and modeling
    • Szybki TK General purpose optimization with MMFF94
    • Szmap TK Understanding water interactions in a binding site
    • Zap TK Calculate Poisson-Boltzmann electrostatic potentials

    Getting Started

    In addition to the extensive API documentation provided for each toolkit, we also provide a Python Cookbook containing an ever growing collection of solutions and practical examples for cheminformatics and molecular modeling problems.
