Hi Christian, Just checked and you're right. For a zero-atom linker Murcko draws 2 atoms. For one-atom linker 3 and so on. So he's including the atom of the ring as well. Currently the code is only doing this for the zero-atom linker, which is why I was confused. If it would be implemented like (so including the ring-atom) then it would also solve the inconsistency of the exocyclicDoubleBonds parameter. I agree on keeping the double bonds attached. By the way, in part 2 of Murcko's article he's doing the same for the side-chains but he puts a lable on it (Augmented side chains).

Yes, these are the two ring atoms. In the Murcko paper a linker is defined as the atoms between two ring systems + the ring atoms. I think I have to check if also for the other linkers the ring atoms are included...I am not sure. > When exocyclicDoubleBonds = false it will give you a 1 atom linker back. > I assumed the exocyclicDoubleBond was intended for keeping double > bonds on a ring fragment in stead of the linkers. I will have to change the documentation. I wanted to keep double bonds on ring systems and linkers, better on the Murcko fragment.In some newer studies these Murcko-like fragments (chemotypes) shows a greater usefullness in classifying compounds, see e.g. studies of G.M.Maggiora (and in-house). So I implemented this instead of the "simple" Murcko scaffold. I will put it on the to do list. best regards Christian -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Datum: Mon, 16 Jul 2007 17:02:06 +0200 Von: "Peter Maas" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> An: [email protected] CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Betreff: Re: [Cdk-user] Murcko Frameworks > > Hi Christian, > > Thanks for you quick fix. > Obviously I got the same warnings as Egon got but I am able to compile > the code within the CDK.
