Data needs to be:
HOW CAN ALL THIS DATA BE USED EFFECTIVELY?
• Organized
• Normalized
• Compared
pX values are calculated from the data so you can:
• better compare biological results across publications
(articles and Patents) and bioassays.
• Use third party tools (Spotfire, Pipeline Pilot) through the
export.
SOLUTION: USE PX VALUES

WHICH SUBSTANCES ARE ACTIVE AGAINST TRPA1 BUT NOT TRPV1?
These These columns appear because some of the are the columns for TRPA1 and TRPV1
substances were tested against these targets
in the same assays for TRPA1 and TRPV1.
Select the columns, click the grey
box, and select Delete Selected
Columns.
23. 23
WHICH SUBSTANCES ARE ACTIVE AGAINST TRPA1 BUT NOT TRPV1?
Substances with low affinity to TRPV1
and high affinity to TRPA1
Sort one of the columns in Descending order.
Then sort the other
column and scroll and
compare.
Substances with low affinity to TRPA1 and high
affinity to TRPV1
Substances with similar

Notas do Editor
Hello and thank you for joining me today for this webinar on Reaxys Medicinal Chemistry. Today’s focus is on the Heatmap tool.
To avoid any confusion, I just wanted to mention that Reaxys and Reaxys medicinal chemistry are 2 separate databases.
Reaxys Searches over 50 million unique substances
Physical properties
Spectra data
Reaction information
Reaxys medicinal chemistry Contains over 5 million substances
25 million biological datapoints
from over 5,000 journals
and over 90,000 Patents
RMC was previously released with a different user interface and was redesigned and re-released in April of this year.
….Reaxys Medicinal Chemistry was designed the same way as Reaxys, with its deeply indexed data and unique organization and functionality, making it compatible with Reaxys……and….
There is a combined interface for customers who license both products.
Reaxys Medicinal Chemistry is the most comprehensive medicinal chemistry database on the market.
Reaxys Medicinal Chemistry is all about connections between the bioactivity of compounds and their targets.
I’d like to give you an idea of the type of data you can expect to find in a substance record. Here we see the structure for Tramadol, and here is just a fraction of the available data for it in RMC.
We’ve extracted data on targets, species, bioassays, tissues, organs, cells, animal models, dosing, routes of administration, with many different units, values, and parameters, like nanomoles, mg/kg, and picomole/min/mg protein, IC50, Ki, ED50, % Stimulation, Area Under the Curve.
But all of this data is, well, almost useless…..unless it can be put in a usable format. In other words, it has to be organized, normalized, and compared to find out which compounds interact with which targets and triggers which biological effect.
The solution: use pX values. pX is a unique way of quantifying the affinity of compound
The Px values are calculated from the data so that you can better compare biological results across publications (articles and Patents) and bioassays, and Use third party tools (Spotfire, Pipeline Pilot) through the export.
.
The Heatmap is a visualization tool that enables you to select different criteria for the X and Y axis in your results table so that you can look at, for example, compounds and targets, assays and parameters, or species and effects, etc.
What does the data help you do? how is reaxys medicinal chemistry relevant ?
Helps you select the most promising compounds to advance in the Drug Discovery process and abandon the wrong compounds earlier
It is relevant in 2 main areas:
New Drug Discovery tasks, and
Current Drug Discovery Project Tasks
I will open Reaxys to illustrate some of these tasks
