Abstract

This paper describes an approach to three-dimensional structure data mining of drug molecules. The approach is based on reduced graph representation of molecular structures and 3D substructure searching. The procedure was implemented as a software tool, called FragSearch. The tool allows us to actively find meaningful 3D structural features that appear in a particular class of drug molecules. Usage of the approach is discussed with some computational trials using a real dataset of drug molecules.
