Yesterday, Cancer Research UK press released the launch of the first full version of canSAR - the Institute of Cancer Research's integrated cancer research and drug discovery resource. canSAR integrates large volumes of disparate data covering most aspects of cancer biology and chemistry, and is an example of how to complement the chEMBL database with therapeutic area specific knowledge. canSAR integrates biological annotation, gene expression, RNA interference studies, structural biology and protein interaction network data - as well as chemical and pharmacological data. It contains annotation on the entire human proteome, and contains >8 million experimental data points including RNAi and chemical screening data. For full release notes please see canSAR news. canSAR is updated monthly. As well as the wonderful chEMBL, the data in canSAR comes from a large number of sources, including ArrayExpress, PDBe, ROCK, STRING, Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer, COSMIC, BindingDB, SCOP, PFAM- we (at the ICR) are grateful to our friends at all these places for their help. In the new year, we will be holding a series of webinars and walkthroughs, and details of these will be posted on the ChEMBL-og.
We are delighted to announce the release of ChEMBL 34, which includes a full update to drug and clinical candidate drug data. This version of the database, prepared on 28/03/2024 contains: 2,431,025 compounds (of which 2,409,270 have mol files) 3,106,257 compound records (non-unique compounds) 20,772,701 activities 1,644,390 assays 15,598 targets 89,892 documents Data can be downloaded from the ChEMBL FTP site: https://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/chembl/ChEMBLdb/releases/chembl_34/ Please see ChEMBL_34 release notes for full details of all changes in this release: https://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/chembl/ChEMBLdb/releases/chembl_34/chembl_34_release_notes.txt New Data Sources European Medicines Agency (src_id = 66): European Medicines Agency's data correspond to EMA drugs prior to 20 January 2023 (excluding vaccines). 71 out of the 882 newly added EMA drugs are only authorised by EMA, rather than from other regulatory bodies e.g.
