MolComplex

Implementing a variety of complementary metrics for molecular complexity and synthetic accessibility.

A collaboration with the Sarpong group to understand complexity of molecules

Requirements

  • numpy, pandas
  • rdkit
  • openbabel
  • mordred
  • SYBA (conda install -c lich syba)

Set up conda environment directly using the yml file:

To install the required packages through Conda, use the env.yml file as follows and the activate the environment:

  1. conda env create -f env.yml
  2. conda activate mc This will set up the environment with molcomplex installed.

For installation by cloning the GitHub folder, perform the follwoing steps:

  1. Download the zipped folder or clone using: git clone https://github.com/patonlab/molcomplex.git
  2. Navigate to the installed folder and run: python setup.py install. This will install molcomplex in the environment you are present in.
  3. Install necessary dependencies using the following: conda install -c lich syba, conda install -c conda-forge rdkit, and conda install -c conda-forge openbabel

Recommended installation and update guide

In a nutshell, molcomplex and its dependencies are installed/updated as follows:

pip install molcomplex

conda install -c conda-forge openbabel rdkit Mordred

conda install lich::syba

conda install numpy pandas

Usage

To display the options type:

python -m molcomplex -h

The molcomplex package can be utilised as follows to obtain a csv with complexity scores.

python -m molcomplex -f examples/test.txt

To write to CSV add in the following:

python -m molcomplex -f examples/test.txt --csv

To perform a retro analysis by breaking down bonds to get complexity scores for precursors of the input SMILES add the following option:

python -m molcomplex -f examples/test.txt --csv --retro

Usage APP

To run the web app perform the following steps:

  1. Navigate to the webapp folder: cd mcwebapp
  2. Run the app as follows: python molcomplexapp.py
  3. copy paste the http://127.0.0.1:8050/ or similar into web browser to utilise as an app.
