Wiley, a global leader in research and education, today announced the 2022 release of its Wiley Identifier of Natural Products for Drug Discovery (AntiBase Library + ChemWindow).
This comprehensive database now offers more than 53,000 natural products and their chemical structures and is known to be an effective screening tool.
"Screening libraries of natural products with known biological activity are an important tool in discovering treatments in cancer, diabetes, antimicrobial, or antifungal research, as well as use in fundamental metabolomics research," said Graeme Whitley, Product Director of Wiley Science Solutions. "It's exciting to see throughout the literature how this library has been effectively used by researchers. We hope this latest release will further accelerate drug discovery and the development of new therapeutics."
The data in this collection is carefully curated from primary and secondary literature, then checked and validated with key references and sources. In addition to chemical structures the library contains valuable metadata such as:
- Compound Properties – molecular formula, mass, composition, class, geo-location
- Physico-Chemical Data – melting point, optical rotation
- Spectroscopic Data – IR, HRMS, MS, UV, plus high-quality predicted 13C NMR data generated using Wiley's proprietary NMR spectrum prediction algorithm
- Related References – direct DOI literature link, Human Metabolome Database
The Wiley Identifier of Natural Products for Drug Discovery is available as a subscription. It is bundled with Wiley's ChemWindow software to screen compounds with advanced data mining features and includes additional tools for structure drawing, reporting, and building databases.
