The molecular entities in linked data dataset

Data in Brief
Dominik Tomaszuk, Łukasz Szeremeta

Abstract

The Molecular Entities in Linked Data (MEiLD) dataset comprises data of distinct atoms, molecules, ions, ion pairs, radicals, radical ions, and others that can be identifiable as separately distinguishable chemical entities. The dataset is provided in a JSON-LD format and was generated by the SDFEater, a tool that allows parsing atoms, bonds, and other molecule data. MEiLD contains 349,960 of 'small' chemical entities. Our dataset is based on the SDF files and is enriched with additional ontologies and line notation data. As a basis, the Molecular Entities in Linked Data dataset uses the Resource Description Framework (RDF) data model. Saving the data in such a model allows preserving the semantic relations, like hierarchical and associative, between them. To describe chemical molecules, vocabularies such as Chemical Vocabulary for Molecular Entities (CVME) and Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS) are used. The dataset can be beneficial, among others, for people concerned with research and development tools for cheminformatics and bioinformatics. In this paper, we describe various methods of access to our dataset. In addition to the MEiLD dataset, we publish the Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) schema of our dataset an...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
