ChemAxon Node for KNIME
“JChem Extensions” offers a set of KNIME nodes with which users can easily build their own workflows and data mining applications for working with chemical data. Further enhancing the use of the JChem Extensions, KNIME enables users to integrate their own software developed in house and other commercially available software tools such as those from Schro”dinger and some other programs. JChem Extensions contains about 70 novel nodes for the KNIME workflow platform, from basic functions dealing with chemical structure data to special functions using ChemAxon’s software tools such as Marvin, JChem, Standardizer and more.

About KNIME
KNIME, pronounced [naim], is a modular data exploration platform that enables the user to visually create data flows (often referred to as pipelines), selectively execute some or all analysis steps, and later investigate the results through interactive views on data and models. KNIME was developed (and will continue to be expanded) by the Chair for Bioinformatics and Information Mining at the University of Konstanz, Germany. The group headed by Michael Berthold is also using KNIME for teaching and research at the University.

| Naming | Generate “IUPAC Name” using ChemAxon Plugins. | ||
| Markush Enumeration | Generate a whole or a subset of the library of a generic Markush structure. It is also capable of calculating the total number of specific structures present in a Markush library. | ||
| Protonation | pKa | Calculate “pKa” using ChemAxon Plugins.Most molecules contain some specific functional groups likely to lose or gain proton under specific circumstances. Each ionization equilibrium between the protonated and deprotonated forms of the molecule can be described with a constant value called pKa. The pKa node calculates the pKa values of all proton gaining or losing atoms on the basis of the partial charge distribution. | |
| Major Microspecies | Calculate “MajorMicrospecies” using ChemAxon Plugins.Determines the major protonation form at a specified pH. | ||
| Isoelectric Point | Calculate “IsoelectricPoint” using ChemAxon Plugins.Net charge of an ionizable molecule is zero at a certain pH. This pH is called the isoelectric point, also referred to as pI. | ||
| Partitioning | logP | Calculate “logP” using ChemAxon Plugins.The logP node calculates the octanol/water partition coefficient, which is used in QSAR analysis and rational drug design as a measure of molecular hydrophobicity. The calculation method is based on the publication of Viswanadhan et al. The logP value of a molecule is composed of the increment values of its atoms. The algorithm described in the paper was modified at several points. Many atomic types were redefined to accommodate electron delocalization. Contributions of ionic forms were added. The logP value of zwitterions are calculated from the logD value at the isoelectric point. The effect of hydrogen bonds on logP is considered if there is a chance to form a six membered ring between suitable donor and acceptor atoms. New atom types were introduced especially for sulfur, carbon, nitrogen, and metal atoms. | |
| logD | Calculate “logD” using ChemAxon Plugins.Compounds having ionizable groups exist in solution as a mixture of different ionic forms. The ionization of those groups, thus the ratio of the ionic forms depends on the pH. Since logP describes the hydrophobicity of one form only, the apparent logP value can be different. The octanol-water distribution coefficient, logD represents the compounds at any pH value. | ||
| Charge | Charge | The partial charge distribution determines many physico-chemical properties of a molecule, such as ionization constants, reactivity and pharmacophore pattern. Use Charge node to compute the partial charge value of each atom. Total charge is calculated from sigma and pi charge components, and any of these three charge values can be displayed. | |
| Polarizability | The electric field generated by partial charges of a molecule spread through intermolecular cavities and the solvent. The induced partial charge (induced dipole) has a tendency to diminish the external electric field. This phenomenon is called polarizability. The more stable the ionized site is the more its vicinity is polarizable. This is why atomic polarizability is an important factor in the determination of pKa and why it is considered in our pKa calculation node. Atomic polarizability is altered by partial charges of atoms. Our calculation is based on Miller’s and Savchik’s paper, and takes into account the effect of partial charge upon atomic polarizability. | ||
| Orbital Electronegativity | Partial charge distribution of the molecule is governed by the orbital electronegativity of the atoms contained in the molecule. | ||
| Isomers | Tautomers | Tautomers are organic compounds that are interconvertible by tautomerization. Tautomerization reaction results in the formal migration of a hydrogen atom or proton, accompanied by a switch of a single bond and adjacent double bond. Commonly, the catalysts of these reactions are acids or bases. In solution a chemical equilibrium of the tautomers will be reached. Some types of tautomers: ketone-enol, amid-imidic acid, lactam-lactim, enamine-imine. | |
| Stereoisomers | The Stereoisomer produces all possible stereoisomers of a given compound. The node handles both tetrahedral and double bond stereo centers. | ||
| Conformation | Conformers | Conformer generates selected number of conformers or the lowest energy conformer of a molecule. | |
| Molecular Dynamics | The molecular dynamics calculates the configurations of the system by integrating Newton’s laws of motion. | ||
| 3D Alignment | 3D Alignment tries to maximize the overlap of atoms of the same type of different molecules. Extended atom types are assigned to each atom to enable chemically more relevant atom pairing. For instance, aromatic nitrogen atom is not matched against a tertiary amine. Types differentiate atomic number, hybridization state and aromaticity, eg. ethene and benzene cannot be aligned. (These extended atom types correspond to the ones used in Dreiding force field.) If you first define atom pairings between molecules using the reaction arrow (Mapping atoms), they will be considered during alignment and they can facilitate the alignment, or can be used exclusively, without AutoAlign. | ||
| Geometry | Topology Analysis | The Topology Analysis node provides characteristic values related to the topological structure of a molecule. | |
| Geometry | The Geometry node provides characteristic values related to the geometrical structure of a molecule. It can calculate steric hindrance and Dreiding energy. The calculation can predict and use the lowest energy conformer of the input structure. | ||
| Polar Surface Area | Polar surface area (PSA) is formed by polar atoms of a molecule. It is a descriptor that shows good correlation with passive molecular transport through membranes, and so allows estimation of transport properties of drugs. | ||
| Molecular Surface Area | There are two types of available molecular surface area calculations, van der Waals and solvent accessible. Calculation method is based on the publication of Ferrara et al. | ||
| Other | H Bond Donor/Acceptor | Hydrogen Bond Donor-Acceptor calculates atomic hydrogen bond donor and acceptor inclination. Atomic data and overall hydrogen bond donor and acceptor multiplicity are displayed for the input molecule (or its microspecies at a given pH). | |
| Huckel Analysis | Localization energies L(+) and L(-) for electrophilic and nucleophilic attack at an aromatic center are calculated by the Huckel method. The smaller L(+) or L(-) means more reactive atomic location. Order of atoms in E(+) or in Nu(-) attack are adjusted according to their localization energies. The total pi energy, the pi electron density and the total electron density are also calculated by the Huckel method. Depending on the chemical environment the following atoms have optimal Coulomb and resonance integral parameters: B, C, N, O, S, F, Cl, Br, I. All other atoms have a default, not optimized parameter. Theoretical background is taken from Isaacs’ book. Additional literature for the Huckel’s parameters is Streitwieser’s book. | ||
| Refractivity | Our calculation is based on the atomic method proposed by Viswanadhan et al. Molar refractivity is strongly related to the volume of the molecules and to London dispersive forces that has important effect in drug-receptor interaction. | ||
