History
The CDK was created in 2000 by Christoph Steinbeck, Egon Willighagen and Dan Gezelter, the developers of Jmol and JChemPaint, to provide a common code base.
Major features
Chemoinformatics
- 2D diagram editing and generation
- 3D geometry generation
- substructure search using exact structures and SMARTS-like queries
- QSAR descriptor calculation (e.g. Template:Entrez Pubmed)
- fingerprint calculation
- force field calculations
- many chemical input/output formats
- structure generators
Bioinformatics
- protein active site detection
- cognate ligand detection Template:DOI
General
- Python wrapper
- Ruby wrapper
- active user community
- newsletter: CDK News
