ChemBank
ChemBank was a public, freely available collection of small-molecule screening data and cheminformatics resources developed by the Chemical Biology Program (formerly the Initiative for Chemical Genetics) at the Broad Institute. It assembled biological activity measurements from high-throughput screens together with chemical structures, compound annotations, and analysis tools, with the aim of helping researchers relate small molecules to their effects on biological systems. ChemBank is no longer maintained: its homepage at chembank.broadinstitute.org is defunct and now redirects away from the original database. It served as an upstream primary source for the Molecular Data Provider (MolePro) and the molecular-data-kp knowledge provider.
