Generate Fingerprint of Single Molecule

Q

How to generate the fingerprint of a single molecule? I want to see the fingerprint value.

A

If you want see the fingerprint value of a single molecule, you can just specify the molecule as the only input molecule to the "babel ... -o fpt " command. Open Babel will output its fingerprint in hexadecimal format.

Here are some molecule fingerprint examples displayed in hexadecimal format.

Fingerprint of water molecule - The output shows 0 bits in the fingerprint. Because single atom fragments of C, N, and O are ignored as mentioned in the Open Babel FP2 finger print documentation. In other words, atoms of C, N and O are not important in similarity search.
