Hi Eakasit Pacharawongsakda,
i forward this message also to the developer and help mailing list.
> I 'm developing a web-based chemoinformatics system for searching 2D structure. I'm using JOELib library and JME Molecular Editor. I have some question , like belows
> - I use JME Molecular Editor to create SMILES and using open babel to create SMILES from MOL file , but both didn't create the same SMILES.
> for example
> - In my database using open babel SMILES format, we have Cc1ccc(cc1)S(=O)(=O)N(CC(=O)O)c1cc(ccc1)Cl
> - A SMILES query from JME Molecular Editor is Cc2ccc(S(=O)(=O)N(CC(=O)O)c1cccc(Cl)c1)cc2
SMILES is a line notation, which says nothing about the uniqueness of
such a notation. If you want to grant this you should use a molecule
canonisation, like the morgan algorithm (available in JOELib with
several tie resolvers), or any newer algorithm (see JCICS or now JCIM
Journal).
> Can I use any functions of JOELib library to search the SMILES query in my database? If so, please explains .
This is too unspecific. What do you want if you are interested to
compare only the SMILES entries, you must use a unique SMILES, but this
will depend on the canonisation algorithm you will use.
You can also try a SMARTS matching (exact matching) or any other
similarity matching (e.g. atom pair coding, feature subset coding,
fingerprint coding, name it ...)
> Can you explain or advise me how to deal with this for searching ?
Please contact the developer mailing list for further discussions, then
i will go into details, this will reduce redundancy. The first thing i
need is an exact problem definition.
> - For the method init( ) in JOESmartsPattern class. What SMILES or SMART pattern string is expected to be a parameter of method ?
> If it is SMART pattern string, how can I generate it from SMILES pattern using JOELib ?
SMILES is in some parts a subset of SMARTS, but i'm not sure if you can
always simply use a SMILES-String for the SMARTS initialization.
Kind regards, Joerg Kurt Wegner
