# The RDKit database cartridge
## What is this?
This document is a tutorial and reference guide for the RDKit PostgreSQL cartridge.
If you find mistakes, or have suggestions for improvements, please either fix them yourselves in the source document (the .md file) or send them to the mailing list: <rdkit-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net> (you will need to subscribe first)
## Tutorial
### Introduction
### Creating databases
#### Configuration
The timing information below was collected on a commodity desktop PC (Dell Studio XPS with a 2.9GHz i7 CPU and 8GB of RAM) running Ubuntu 12.04 and using PostgreSQL v9.1.4. The database was installed with default parameters.
To improve performance while loading the database and building the index, I changed a couple of postgres configuration settings in postgresql.conf :
synchronous_commit = off # immediate fsync at commit
full_page_writes = off # recover from partial page writes
And to improve search performance, I allowed postgresql to use more memory than the extremely conservative default settings:
shared_buffers = 2048MB # min 128kB
# (change requires restart)
work_mem = 128MB # min 64kB
#### Creating a database from a file
In this example I show how to load a database from the SMILES file of commercially available compounds that is downloadable from emolecules.com at URL <http://downloads.emolecules.com/free/>
If you choose to repeat this exact example yourself, please note that it takes several hours to load the 6 million row database and generate all fingerprints.
First create the database and install the cartridge:
~/RDKit_trunk/Data/emolecules > createdb emolecules
~/RDKit_trunk/Data/emolecules > psql -c 'create extension rdkit' emolecules
Now create and populate a table holding the raw data:
~/RDKit_trunk/Data/emolecules > psql -c 'create table raw_data (id SERIAL, smiles text, emol_id integer, parent_id integer)' emolecules
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "raw_data_id_seq" for serial column "raw_data.id"
CREATE TABLE
~/RDKit_trunk/Data/emolecules > zcat emolecules-2013-02-01.smi.gz | sed '1d; s/\\/\\\\/g' | psql -c "copy raw_data (smiles,emol_id,parent_id) from stdin with delimiter ' '" emolecules
Create the molecule table, but only for SMILES that the RDKit accepts:
~/RDKit_trunk/Data/emolecules > psql emolecules
psql (9.1.4)
Type "help" for help.
emolecules=# select * into mols from (select id,mol_from_smiles(smiles::cstring) m from raw_data) tmp where m is not null;
WARNING: could not create molecule from SMILES 'CN(C)C(=[N+](C)C)Cl.F[P-](F)(F)(F)(F)F'
... a lot of warnings deleted ...
SELECT 6008732
emolecules=# create index molidx on mols using gist(m);
CREATE INDEX
The last step is only required if you plan to do substructure searches.
#### Loading ChEMBL
Start by downloading and installing the postgresql dump from the ChEMBL website <ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/chembl/ChEMBLdb/latest>
Connect to the database, install the cartridge, and create the schema that we'll use:
chembl_25=# create extension if not exists rdkit;
chembl_25=# create schema rdk;
Create the molecules and build the substructure search index:
chembl_25=# select * into rdk.mols from (select molregno,mol_from_ctab(molfile::cstring) m from compound_structures) tmp where m is not null;
SELECT 1870451
chembl_25=# create index molidx on rdk.mols using gist(m);
CREATE INDEX
chembl_25=# alter table rdk.mols add primary key (molregno);
ALTER TABLE
Create some fingerprints and build the similarity search index:
chembl_25=# select molregno,torsionbv_fp(m) as torsionbv,morganbv_fp(m) as mfp2,featmorganbv_fp(m) as ffp2 into rdk.fps from rdk.mols;
SELECT 1870451
chembl_25=# create index fps_ttbv_idx on rdk.fps using gist(torsionbv);
CREATE INDEX
chembl_25=# create index fps_mfp2_idx on rdk.fps using gist(mfp2);
CREATE INDEX
chembl_25=# create index fps_ffp2_idx on rdk.fps using gist(ffp2);
CREATE INDEX
chembl_25=# alter table rdk.fps add primary key (molregno);
ALTER TABLE
Here is a group of the commands used here (and below) in one block so that you can just paste it in at the psql prompt:
create extension if not exists rdkit;
create schema rdk;
select * into rdk.mols from (select molregno,mol_from_ctab(molfile::cstring) m from compound_structures) tmp where m is not null;
create index molidx on rdk.mols using gist(m);
alter table rdk.mols add primary key (molregno);
select molregno,torsionbv_fp(m) as torsionbv,morganbv_fp(m) as mfp2,featmorganbv_fp(m) as ffp2 into rdk.fps from rdk.mols;
create index fps_ttbv_idx on rdk.fps using gist(torsionbv);
create index fps_mfp2_idx on rdk.fps using gist(mfp2);
create index fps_ffp2_idx on rdk.fps using gist(ffp2);
alter table rdk.fps add primary key (molregno);
create or replace function get_mfp2_neighbors(smiles text)
returns table(molregno bigint, m mol, similarity double precision) as
$$
select molregno,m,tanimoto_sml(morganbv_fp(mol_from_smiles($1::cstring)),mfp2) as similarity
from rdk.fps join rdk.mols using (molregno)
where morganbv_fp(mol_from_smiles($1::cstring))%mfp2
order by morganbv_fp(mol_from_smiles($1::cstring))<%>mfp2;
$$ language sql stable ;
### Substructure searches
Example query molecules taken from the [eMolecules home page](http://www.emolecules.com/):
chembl_25=# select count(*) from rdk.mols where m@>'c1cccc2c1nncc2' ;
count
-------
461
(1 row)
Time: 107.602 ms
chembl_25=# select count(*) from rdk.mols where m@>'c1ccnc2c1nccn2' ;
count
-------
1124
(1 row)
Time: 216.222 ms
chembl_25=# select count(*) from rdk.mols where m@>'c1cncc2n1ccn2' ;
count
-------
2233
(1 row)
Time: 88.266 ms
chembl_25=# select count(*) from rdk.mols where m@>'Nc1ncnc(N)n1' ;
count
-------
7095
(1 row)
Time: 327.855 ms
chembl_25=# select count(*) from rdk.mols where m@>'c1scnn1' ;
count
-------
16526
(1 row)
Time: 568.675 ms
chembl_25=# select count(*) from rdk.mols where m@>'c1cccc2c1ncs2' ;
count
-------
20745
(1 row)
Time: 998.104 ms
chembl_25=# select count(*) from rdk.mols where m@>'c1cccc2c1CNCCN2' ;
count
-------
1788
(1 row)
Time: 1922.273 ms
Notice that the last two queries are starting to take a while to execute and count all the results.
Given we're searching through 1.7 million compounds these search times aren't incredibly slow, but it would be nice to have them quicker.
One easy way to speed things up, particularly for queries that return a large number of results, is to only retrieve a limited number of results:
chembl_25=# select * from rdk.mols where m@>'c1cccc2c1CNCCN2' limit 100;
molregno | m
----------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1671940 | Cc1cccc(C)c1N1C(=O)c2ccccc2NC(=O)C1C(=O)NCc1ccco1

760998 | CC(=O)N1CC(=O)Nc2ccc(Cl)cc2C1c1ccc(F)cc1
(100 rows)
Time: 97.357 ms
#### SMARTS-based queries
Oxadiazole or thiadiazole:
chembl_25=# select * from rdk.mols where m@>'c1[o,s]ncn1'::qmol limit 500;
molregno | m
----------+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1882516 | COc1cccc(CN(C)Cc2nc(C(C)C)no2)c1
2194441 | Cc1nc([C@](C)(O)C#Cc2ccc3c(c2)-c2nc(C(N)=O)sc2[C@@H](F)CO3)no1
1881742 | CCOc1ccc(C(F)(F)F)cc1NC(=O)NCc1noc(C)n1
1949861 | FC(F)(F)c1ccc(-c2nc(-c3ccc4nc[nH]c4c3)no2)cc1
1949860 | FC(F)(F)c1cccc(-c2nc(-c3ccc4nc[nH]c4c3)no2)c1
2172627 | O=c1[nH]cc(-c2cc(Cl)ccc2Oc2cc(F)c(S(=O)(=O)Nc3ncns3)cc2F)n2cncc12
...
1848026 | O=C1CCCN1c1cccc(-c2noc([C@H]3CCCCN3C(=O)COc3ccccc3)n2)c1
1848027 | O=C1CN(c2cccc(-c3noc([C@H]4CCCCN4C(=O)COc4ccccc4)n3)c2)C(=O)N1
1848036 | CN(C)C(=O)CCC(=O)Nc1cc(F)cc(-c2noc([C@H]3CCCCN3C(=O)COc3ccccc3)n2)c1
1852688 | CC(Sc1nc(N)cc(N)n1)c1nc(C(C)(C)C)no1
(500 rows)
Time: 761.847 ms
This is slower than the pure SMILES query, this is generally true of SMARTS-based queries.
#### Using Stereochemistry
Note that by default stereochemistry is not taken into account when doing substructure queries:
chembl_25=# select * from rdk.mols where m@>'NC(=O)[C@@H]1CCCN1C=O' limit 10;
molregno | m

#### Tuning queries
It is frequently useful to be able to exert a bit more control over substructure queries without
having to construct complex SMARTS queries. The cartridge function `mol_adjust_query_properties()`
can be used to do just this. Here is an example of the default behavior, using a
query for 2,6 di-substituted pyridines:
chembl_25=# select molregno,m from rdk.mols where m@>mol_adjust_query_properties('*c1cccc(NC(=O)*)n1') limit 10;
molregno | m

By default `mol_adjust_query_properties()` makes the following changes to the molecule:
- Converts dummy atoms into "any" queries
- Adds a degree query to every ring atom so that its substitution must match what was provided
- Aromaticity perception is done (if it hasn't been done already)
We can control the behavior by providing an additional JSON argument. Here's an example
where we disable the additional degree queries:
chembl_25=# select molregno,m from rdk.mols where m@>mol_adjust_query_properties('*c1cccc(NC(=O)*)n1',
chembl_25(# '{"adjustDegree":false}') limit 10;

added to chain atoms):

The options available are:
- **adjustDegree** (default: true) : adds a query to match the input atomic degree
- **adjustDegreeFlags** (default: ADJUST_IGNOREDUMMIES | ADJUST_IGNORECHAINS) controls where the degree is adjusted
- **adjustRingCount** (default: false) : adds a query to match the input ring count
- **adjustRingCountFlags** (default: ADJUST_IGNOREDUMMIES | ADJUST_IGNORECHAINS) controls where the ring count is adjusted
- **makeDummiesQueries** (default: true) : convert dummy atoms in the input structure into any-atom queries
- **aromatizeIfPossible** (default: true) : run the aromaticity perception algorithm on the input structure (note: this is largely redundant since molecules built from smiles always have aromaticity perceived)
- **makeBondsGeneric** (default: false) : convert bonds into any-bond queries
- **makeBondsGenericFlags** (default: false) : controls which bonds are made generic
- **makeAtomsGeneric** (default: false) : convert atoms into any-atom queries
- **makeAtomsGenericFlags** (default: false) : controls which atoms are made generic
The various `Flags` arguments mentioned above, which control where particular options are applied,
are constructed by combining operations from the list below with the `|` character.
- **IGNORENONE** : apply the operation to all atoms
- **IGNORERINGS** : do not apply the operation to ring atoms
- **IGNORECHAINS** : do not apply the operation to chain atoms
- **IGNOREDUMMIES** : do not apply the operation to dummy atoms
- **IGNORENONDUMMIES** : do not apply the operation to non-dummy atoms
- **IGNOREALL** : do not apply the operation to any atoms
### Similarity searches
Basic similarity searching:
chembl_25=# select count(*) from rdk.fps where mfp2%morganbv_fp('Cc1ccc2nc(-c3ccc(NC(C4N(C(c5cccs5)=O)CCC4)=O)cc3)sc2c1');
count
-------
67
(1 row)
Time: 177.579 ms
Usually we'd like to find a sorted listed of neighbors along with the accompanying SMILES. This SQL function makes that pattern easy:
chembl_25=# create or replace function get_mfp2_neighbors(smiles text)
returns table(molregno bigint, m mol, similarity double precision) as
$$
select molregno,m,tanimoto_sml(morganbv_fp(mol_from_smiles($1::cstring)),mfp2) as similarity
from rdk.fps join rdk.mols using (molregno)
where morganbv_fp(mol_from_smiles($1::cstring))%mfp2
order by morganbv_fp(mol_from_smiles($1::cstring))<%>mfp2;
$$ language sql stable ;

#### Adjusting the similarity cutoff
By default, the minimum similarity returned with a similarity search is 0.5. This can be adjusted with the rdkit.tanimoto\_threshold (and rdkit.dice\_threshold) configuration variables:
chembl_25=# select count(*) from get_mfp2_neighbors('Cc1ccc2nc(N(C)CC(=O)O)sc2c1');
count
-------
21
(1 row)
Time: 181.438 ms
chembl_25=# set rdkit.tanimoto_threshold=0.7;

### Using the MCS code
The most straightforward use of the MCS code is to find the maximum common substructure of a group of molecules:
chembl_25=# select fmcs(m::text) from rdk.mols join compound_records using (molregno) where doc_id=4;
fmcs
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[#6](-[#6]-[#7]-[#6]-[#6](-,:[#6])-,:[#6])-,:[#6]-,:[#6]-,:[#6]-,:[#6]
(1 row)
Time: 31.041 ms
chembl_25=# select fmcs(m::text) from rdk.mols join compound_records using (molregno) where doc_id=5;
fmcs
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[#6]-[#6](=[#8])-[#7]-[#6](-[#6](=[#8])-[#7]1-[#6]-[#6]-[#6]-[#6]-1-[#6](=[#8])-[#7]-[#6](-[#6](=[#8])-[#8])-[#6]-[#6])-[#6](-[#6])-[#6]
(1 row)
Time: 705.535 ms
The same thing can be done with a SMILES column:
chembl_25=# select fmcs(canonical_smiles) from compound_structures join compound_records using (molregno) where doc_id=4;
fmcs
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[#6](-[#7]-[#6]-[#6]-,:[#6]-,:[#6]-,:[#6]-,:[#6])-[#6](-,:[#6])-,:[#6]
(1 row)
Time: 128.879 ms
It's also possible to adjust some of the parameters to the FMCS algorithm, though this is somewhat more painful as of this writing (the 2017\_03 release cycle). Here are a couple of examples:
chembl_25=# select fmcs_smiles(str,'{"Threshold":0.8}') from
chembl_25-# (select string_agg(m::text,' ') as str from rdk.mols
chembl_25(# join compound_records using (molregno) where doc_id=4) as str ;
fmcs_smiles
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[#6]-[#6]-[#8]-[#6](-[#6](=[#8])-[#7]-[#6](-[#6])-[#6](-,:[#6])-,:[#6])-[#6](-[#8])-[#6](-[#8])-[#6](-[#8]-[#6]-[#6])-[#6]-[#7]-[#6](-[#6])-[#6](-,:[#6])-,:[#6]
(1 row)
Time: 9673.949 ms
chembl_25=#
chembl_25=# select fmcs_smiles(str,'{"AtomCompare":"Any"}') from
chembl_25-# (select string_agg(m::text,' ') as str from rdk.mols
chembl_25(# join compound_records using (molregno) where doc_id=4) as str ;
fmcs_smiles
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[#6]-,:[#6,#7]-[#8,#6]-[#6,#7](-[#6,#8]-[#7,#6]-,:[#6,#7]-,:[#6,#7]-,:[#7,#6]-,:[#6])-[#6,#7]-[#6]-[#6](-[#8,#6]-[#6])-[#6,#7]-[#7,#6]-[#6]-,:[#6,#8]-,:[#7,#6]-,:[#6]
(1 row)
Time: 304.332 ms
*Note* The combination of `"AtomCompare":"Any"` and a value of `"Threshold"` that is less than 1.0 does a quite generic search and can results in very long search times. Using `"Timeout"` with this combination is recommended:
chembl_25=# select fmcs_smiles(str,'{"AtomCompare":"Any","CompleteRingsOnly":true,"Threshold":0.8,"Timeout":60}') from
chembl_25-# (select string_agg(m::text,' ') as str from rdk.mols
chembl_25(# join compound_records using (molregno) where doc_id=3) as str ;

## Reference Guide
### New Types
- mol : an rdkit molecule. Can be created from a SMILES via direct type conversion, for example: 'c1ccccc1'::mol creates a molecule from the SMILES 'c1ccccc1'
- qmol : an rdkit molecule containing query features (i.e. constructed from SMARTS). Can be created from a SMARTS via direct type conversion, for example: 'c1cccc[c,n]1'::qmol creates a query molecule from the SMARTS 'c1cccc[c,n]1'
- sfp : a sparse count vector fingerprint (SparseIntVect in C++ and Python)
- bfp : a bit vector fingerprint (ExplicitBitVect in C++ and Python)
### Parameters
- rdkit.tanimoto\_threshold : threshold value for the Tanimoto similarity operator. Searches done using Tanimoto similarity will only return results with a similarity of at least this value.
- rdkit.dice\_threshold : threshold value for the Dice similiarty operator. Searches done using Dice similarity will only return results with a similarity of at least this value.
- rdkit.do\_chiral\_sss : toggles whether or not stereochemistry is used in substructure matching. (*available from 2013\_03 release*).
- rdkit.sss\_fp\_size : the size (in bits) of the fingerprint used for substructure screening.
- rdkit.morgan\_fp\_size : the size (in bits) of morgan fingerprints
- rdkit.featmorgan\_fp\_size : the size (in bits) of featmorgan fingerprints
- rdkit.layered\_fp\_size : the size (in bits) of layered fingerprints
- rdkit.rdkit\_fp\_size : the size (in bits) of RDKit fingerprints
- rdkit.torsion\_fp\_size : the size (in bits) of topological torsion bit vector fingerprints
- rdkit.atompair\_fp\_size : the size (in bits) of atom pair bit vector fingerprints
- rdkit.avalon\_fp\_size : the size (in bits) of avalon fingerprints
### Operators
#### Similarity search
- % : operator used for similarity searches using Tanimoto similarity. Returns whether or not the Tanimoto similarity between two fingerprints (either two sfp or two bfp values) exceeds rdkit.tanimoto\_threshold.
- \# : operator used for similarity searches using Dice similarity. Returns whether or not the Dice similarity between two fingerprints (either two sfp or two bfp values) exceeds rdkit.dice\_threshold.
- <%\> : used for Tanimoto KNN searches (to return ordered lists of neighbors).
- <\#\> : used for Dice KNN searches (to return ordered lists of neighbors).
#### Substructure and exact structure search
- @\> : substructure search operator. Returns whether or not the mol or qmol on the right is a substructure of the mol on the left.
- <@ : substructure search operator. Returns whether or not the mol or qmol on the left is a substructure of the mol on the right.
- @= : returns whether or not two molecules are the same.
#### Molecule comparison
- < : returns whether or not the left mol is less than the right mol
- \> : returns whether or not the left mol is greater than the right mol
- = : returns whether or not the left mol is equal to the right mol
- <= : returns whether or not the left mol is less than or equal to the right mol
- \>= : returns whether or not the left mol is greater than or equal to the right mol
*Note* Two molecules are compared by making the following comparisons in order. Later comparisons are only made if the preceding values are equal:
\# Number of atoms \# Number of bonds \# Molecular weight \# Number of rings
If all of the above are the same and the second molecule is a substructure of the first, the molecules are declared equal, Otherwise (should not happen) the first molecule is arbitrarily defined to be less than the second.
There are additional operators defined in the cartridge, but these are used for internal purposes.

## Using the Cartridge from Python
The recommended adapter for connecting to postgresql is pyscopg2 (<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/psycopg2>).
Here's an example of connecting to our local copy of ChEMBL and doing a basic substructure search:
>>> import psycopg2
>>> conn = psycopg2.connect(database='chembl_25')
>>> curs = conn.cursor()
>>> curs.execute('select * from rdk.mols where m@>%s',('c1cccc2c1nncc2',))
>>> curs.fetchone()
(9830, 'CC(C)Sc1ccc(CC2CCN(C3CCN(C(=O)c4cnnc5ccccc54)CC3)CC2)cc1')
That returns a SMILES for each molecule. If you plan to do more work with the molecules after retrieving them, it is much more efficient to ask postgresql to give you the molecules in pickled form:
>>> curs.execute('select molregno,mol_send(m) from rdk.mols where m@>%s',('c1cccc2c1nncc2',))
>>> row = curs.fetchone()
>>> row
(9830, <memory at 0x...>)
These pickles can then be converted into molecules:
>>> from rdkit import Chem
>>> m = Chem.Mol(row[1].tobytes())
>>> Chem.MolToSmiles(m,True)
'CC(C)Sc1ccc(CC2CCN(C3CCN(C(=O)c4cnnc5ccccc54)CC3)CC2)cc1'
