Shape distribution for fragment collections
02 09 13- Filed In:Fragment-based Screening
I’ve now updated the physicochemical property profiles of all the fragment collections I have access to, including the categorisation into rod-, disc- or sphere-like shapes I described last week.
I thought it might be interesting to generate a plot of all 170,000 fragments to look at the distribution. I actually viewed the results in Vortex as shown below. This tool makes it easy to colour by “shape” and also allows me to highlight a few structures that appear at the extremism of the plot.
