ChEBI News
03 March 2010 - ChEBI release 66ChEBI release 66 is now available, containing 534,521 total entities, of which 20,151 are annotated entities and 698 were submitted via the ChEBI submission tool. See our entity of the month, Sildenafil citrate http://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/entityMonthForward.do With kind regards, the ChEBI team. 03 February 2010 - ChEBI Release 65ChEBI release 65 is now available, containing 534,310 total entities, of which 19,852 are annotated entities and 693 were submitted via the ChEBI submission tool. See our entity of the month, Ferrocene http://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/entityMonthForward.do With kind regards, the ChEBI team. 06 January 2010 - ChEBI Release 64ChEBI release 64 is now available, containing 534,142 total entities, of which 19,645 are annotated entities and 693 were submitted via the ChEBI submission tool. See our entity of the month, (+)-Abscisic acid http://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/entityMonthForward.do 04 December 2009 - ChEBI Release 63 with new Web Services 2.0ChEBI release 63 is now available, containing 536,978 total entities, of which 19,501 are annotated entities and 678 were submitted via the ChEBI submission tool. ChEBI would like to announce the release of its new Web Service providing access to all 2 star data. This is version 2.0 of the Web Service. The previous version is still available but will be phased out by June 2010. ChEBI Web Service 2.0: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/webServices.do 04 November 2009 - CHEBI Release 62ChEBI release 62 is now available, containing 455,788 total entities, of which 19,236 are annotated entities and 607 were submitted via the ChEBI submission tool. With this release, we've incorporated the compound records from the ChEMBL dataset and introduced a starring system to identify core (3-star) annotated ChEBI entries from entries annotated by the ChEMBL project and ChEBI submitters. We've also upgraded our user interface, including using the JChemPaint applet for structure searching, more advanced options in the advanced search, and a new-look, neater home page. With kind regards, the ChEBI team. 21 October 2009 - ChEBI Release datesOnce again we would like to remind our users that as of Release 62 ChEBI will have over 440,000 entities. This is due to the integration of ChEMBL. However, due to logistics we have decided to move our release dates to the first Wednesday of every month instead of the last Wednesday of every month. Hence the next ChEBI releases are scheduled as follows: Release 62: 4 November 2009 Release 63: 2 December 2009 Release 64: 6 January 2009 etc... 07 October 2009 - ChEBI Release 61ChEBI release 61 is now available, containing 18933 annotated entities, with 413 of those submitted via the ChEBI submission tool. With this release, we've upgraded the engine behind the ChEBI structure search to use the OrChem Oracle chemistry toolkit (http://orchem.sf.net/). See our entity of the month, Chloroquine, at http://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/init.do#Entity. The next ChEBI release is scheduled for 28 October 2009. Best regards, the ChEBI team. 24 September 2009 - ChEBI Release 61 rescheduledWe have rescheduled ChEBI release 61 to the 7th October 2009 instead of the 30th September 2009. This is to enable us to put in place a new database server. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. Best Regards, The ChEBI Team 11 September 2009 - ChEMBL data integrationWe would like to announce that as of Release 62 (28th October 2009) ChEBI will contain over 440,000 chemical entities. The additional data is coming in from the ChEMBL (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembl/) resource which focuses on the interactions of pharmacologically active molecules and their receptors. ChEBI will continue to manually annotate entities to a high standard but we will supplement our entities with additional ones from the ChEMBL resource. In the light of this extra data we would like to make you aware of a few changes that might affect you as a user: 1. Manually annotated ChEBI entities will be clearly distinguished from the manually annotated entities sourced from ChEMBL by a starring system. Although ChEMBL is of a high quality it does not have the same focus on nomenclature and the ontology as the current ChEBI entities, and therefore we will be allowing users to distinguish between the two. Current ChEBI annotated entities (and future ones) will be indicated as 3 star entries (maximum). ChEMBL and submitted entries will be indicated as 2 stars. We will continue annotating ChEBI entries following our existing high standards. 2. All the data will be freely available and provided from our downloads section. All the current download options will be provided in two flavours, namely 3 star ChEBI entities only and all the data including ChEMBL. 3. We will roll out a new search engine which will result in a different wildcard for searches. The current wildcard (%) will be replaced with an asterisk (*). 4. We will roll out a new ChEBI Web Service (version 2). This Web Service will provide new methods as well as access to all the new data. The old Web Service will continue to exist but will not have access to all the new data. We intend to shut down the old Web Service within 6 months of launching the new one. Finally, we would like to reassure all users that ChEBI will continue to maintain the same annotation standards that are currently provided. The new influx of data will not in anyway affect the high standard that ChEBI is trying to provide, but will rather supplement our already existing data.

ChEBI now includes publications referencing its entries. The next ChEBI release will be September 30th 2009.
