Abstract
Quantitative activity and species source data of natural products (NPs) are important for drug discovery, medicinal plant research, and microbial investigations. Activity values of NPs against specific targets are useful for discovering targeted therapeutic agents and investigating the mechanism of medicinal plants. Composition/concentration values of NPs in individual species facilitate the assessments and investigations of the therapeutic quality of herbs and phenotypes of microbes. Here, we describe an update of the NPASS natural product activity and species source database previously featured in NAR. This update includes: (i) new data of ∼95 000 records of the composition/concentration values of ∼1 490 NPs/NP clusters in ∼390 species, (ii) extended data of activity values of ∼43 200 NPs against ∼7 700 targets (∼40% and ∼32% increase, respectively), (iii) extended data of ∼31 600 species sources of ∼94 400 NPs (∼26% and ∼32% increase, respectively), (iv) new species types of ∼440 co-cultured microbes and ∼420 engineered microbes, (v) new data of ∼66 600 NPs without experimental activity values but with estimated activity profiles from the established chemical similarity tool Chemical Checker, (vi) new data of the computed drug-likeness properties and the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) properties for all NPs. NPASS update version is freely accessible at http://bidd.group/NPASS.
