[edit] 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.

[edit] Major features

[edit] 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

[edit] Bioinformatics

• protein active site detection
• cognate ligand detection Template:DOI

[edit] General

• Python wrapper
• Ruby wrapper
• active user community
• newsletter: CDK News
