  1. Overview of ChEMBL Database Gareth Owen, ChEBI group, EMBL-EBI Northwestern University 16th October 2012

  2. What is ChEMBL? • Open access database for drug discovery • Freely available (searchable and downloadable) • Content: • 2D structures & calculated properties (logP, MW, Lipinski, etc.) • Associated bioactivity data extracted from the primary medicinal chemistry journals such as J. Med. Chem. • Deposited data from neglected disease screening (e.g. malaria) • Subset of data from PubChem • Covers ~30 years of compound synthesis and testing • Annotated FDA-approved drugs • Secure searching (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembldb)

  3. ChEMBL Database ChEMBL14 Targets: 9,003 Compounds: 1,376,469 Activities: 10,129,256* Publications: 46,133 60% proteins 20% organisms 20% cell lines * Includes: ~5,900,000 (PubChem) ~100,000 (Deposited malaria screening sets) • Assays are classified as: • Binding measurements • Functional assays • ADME/toxicity data 3 Content

  4. ChEMBL Assays –Binding, Functional, ADMET Binding Assays • Assays which directly measure the binding of a compound to a particular target • E.g., competition binding assays with a radioligand • Various endpoints measured, but most commonly reported are: • IC50 (half maximal inhibitory concentration) • Ki (binding affinity) • MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) • % Inhibition (of activity)

  5. Functional Assays Whole organism assays (e.g., anti-infectives/parasitics) Disease-derived cell-line (e.g., human ovarian cancer cell line cytotoxicity) Tissue or cell-based disease model (e.g., glucose uptake by adipocytes) Tissue or cell-based assay for target effect (e.g., contraction of guinea-pig ileum) Cell-based assay over-expressing target (e.g., GPCR calcium mobilisation) Target association Disease association

  6. ADMET Assays • Assays measuring: Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, Toxicity properties of compounds • Examples include: • Half-life of compound in rats • Tissue distribution of compound • Levels of metabolites

  7. ChEMBL Targets: Protein Protein complex Protein family Nucleic Acid e.g., DNA e.g., Muscarinic receptors e.g., Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor e.g., PDE5 Cell Line TissueSub-cellular Fraction Organism e.g., Nervous e.g., HEK293 cells e.g., Drosophila e.g., Mitochondria

  8. Protein Targets • Each protein target linked to a sequence in UniProt • Information from UniProt used in ChEMBL to allow searching: • Protein name/description • Synonyms and gene names • Organism (and NCBI Tax ID) • Proteins in ChEMBL also classified according to family (e.g., Receptor, Kinase, Protease, Transporter etc). • Used for searching by target tree (Browse Targets)

  9. ChEMBL Compounds • Tautomers of the same compound are treated as the same compound. The form shown is as in the paper • Chemical structures are stored as .mol files • If the stereochemistry is known it is drawn as a specific enantiomer • Identifying unique compounds is done using standard Inchis • Salts and parent molecules are grouped together for displaying bioactivity data although activity data is recorded against the specific salt

  10. ChEMBL Home Page https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembldb

  11. ChEMBL Main Search Page

  12. Drug Information Clickable structure Parent and Salt Forms Small molecule resources at the EBI

  13. Click to display data

  14. ChEBI Link:

  15. This will take you back to ChEMBL

  16. ChemSpider Links: The link works both ways. They link TO ChemSpider and FROM ChemSpider. They link on Standard_Inchi

  17. Wikipedia Links: We also have links with Wikipedia. These also use the Standard_Inchi as the common identifier. These links will link to the Compound Report Card in ChEMBL. The links are added by a ChemoBot and can be updated with each release, if required.

  18. Use Case 1 - Searching by Target • What is known about chemical structures that bind to a specific protein (Adenosine A2a)? • What is known about their potency/selectivity/ADMET Properties • Is there any protein structure data?

  19. Use Case 1 Searching by Target in ChEMBL Choose Sources to include in search

  20. Retrieving Bioactivity Data - Single Target 3D Structures Bioactivity data for target Display all bioactivity data for target Assay data for target Click pie chart to retrieve particular end-points

  21. Filtering Bioactivities Select targets of interest Select required activity types and define cut-offs e.g Ki<100nM

  22. Bioactivity Results Compound structures Activity values Assay details Target details References

  23. Selectivity Data For example:Can search ChEMBL for all data on compounds that have adenosine A2a Ki values <100nM

  24. ADMET Data Summary of ChEMBL bioavailability data for compounds with A2a Ki values <100nM Example of Bioavailability data

  25. Use Case 2 – Searching by Structure What compounds contain a particular substructure? What is known about their bioactivities? Known drugs/clinical Trials

  26. name Lists of Identifiers • Types of synonyms: • Research codes • Trade names • INN, USAN Different sketchers

  27. Similarity and Substructure Searching Display/Download Bioactivity Data

  28. Filtering Data on Lipinski Properties etc Display Bioactivities of subset 32

  29. names Bioactivities Structure

  30. Properties Cross-references Clinical Trials Bioactivities

  31. Links to Other Resources

  32. Links to Other Resources PDBe - http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe

  33. Marketed Drugs Select set of interest Export to Excel or Export SDF

  34. Use Case 3 – Similar Targets Are there any available data on compounds that bind to proteins similar to IRAK2? For these compounds what bioactivity data is there on compounds with related sub-structures? Is there any crystal structure data on these proteins?

  35. Protein Sequence Search • *Altschul SF et al., J Mol Biol. 215(3), p403-10 (1990) • More precise method for identifying targets • Input is a protein sequence of interest • Uses BLAST* algorithm to perform pair-wise comparisons between input sequence and all proteins in the Target Dictionary, to find most closely related matches • Results are scored according to similarity to input sequence (determined by number of amino acids that are identical or have similar properties)

  36. Use Case 3 – Similar Targets Protein Sequence of Interest e.gfrom UniProt http://www.uniprot.org Data on IRAK1,IRAK3 and IRAK4 but not IRAK2

  37. IRAK1, IRAK3 and IRAK4 data Identify sub-structure of interest What other data available on compounds with this sub-structure?

  38. Use Case 4 - Assay keyword search • Some ChEMBL data (e.g., functional assays) may not be mapped against molecular targets • May want to perform a more general search (e.g., for a disease process, animal model, cell type of interest) • Examples: • What compounds have been tested in disease models (cholesterol lowering)? • What data is available for brain penetration (brain to plasma ratio)?

  39. Assay Search for “Cholesterol Lowering”

  40. Assay Search for “Brain to Plasma”
