Abstract
MOTIVATION: Fingerprints (FPs) are the most common small molecule representation in cheminformatics. There are a wide variety of FPs, and the Extended Connectivity Fingerprint (ECFP) is one of the best-suited for general applications. Despite the overall FP abundance, only a few FPs represent the 3D structure of the molecule, and hardly any encode protein-ligand interactions.
