Suggested tools for drug discovery #64

Open chrisbarnettster opened 4 years ago

Based on discussions from gitter https://gitter.im/usegalaxy-eu/Lobby @praveenkumarpgiindia

Does Galaxy have a tool to predict the synthetic reaction of drugs? Or to evaluate between different synthetic reactions for a compound? Some options : Chemical synthesis is the biggest rate-limiting step in drug discovery and galaxy with its world-class implementation pattern should go ahead in overcoming it. I am hereby providing some of the open-source tool/ literature in this regard - OSET: Organic Synthesis Exploration Tool (https://github.com/cekkr/oset) ; Cantera (https://cantera.org/) ; https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s13321-018-0269-8; RDkit in python --> RDkit reaction management; ReactPRED: a tool to predict and analyze biochemical reactions; Computer-Assisted Retrosynthesis Based on Molecular Similarity; Computational prediction of chemical reactions: current status and outlook

These may be more suitable for use in Interactive Jupyter notebooks but worth a look.

The Cantera library looks interesting. Not sure I have time for such a big project though.

Maybe some simple tools based on the RDKit reaction capabilities would be less time-intensive.

OK, Simon. Thats great to hear. After my exams get over in April, I will also participate in the development.
