ChEMBL is a database of bioactive drug-like small molecules, it contains 2-D structures, calculated properties (e.g. logP, Molecular Weight, Lipinski Parameters, etc.) and abstracted bioactivities (e.g. binding constants, pharmacology and ADMET data).
The Protein Databank in Europe (PDBe) www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/
This used to be called the Macromolecular Structures Database (MSD). MACiE links to this, rather than the PDB itself, as this is an EBI view of the PDB.
The RCSB Protein Data Bank www.rcsb.org/pdb/
The PDB archive contains information about experimentally-determined structures of proteins, nucleic acids, and complex assemblies
PDBSum www.ebi.ac.uk/thornton-srv/databases/pdbsum/
PDBsum provides an at-a-glance overview of every macromolecular structure deposited in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), giving schematic diagrams of the molecules in each structure and of the interactions between them.
The CATH Database http://www.cathdb.info/
CATH is a hierarchical classification of protein domain structures, which clusters proteins at four major levels: Class (C), Architecture (A), Topology (T) and Homologous superfamily (H).
IUPAC Compendium of Chemical Terminology http://goldbook.iupac.org/
The IUPAC Compendium of Chemical Terminology, also known as the Gold Book, is essentially a dictionary of chemical terminology and the basis of most of the MACiE dictionary terms.
The Catalytic Site Atlas www.ebi.ac.uk/thornton-srv/databases/CSA/
The Catalytic Site Atlas (CSA) is a database documenting enzyme active sites and catalytic residues in enzymes of 3D structure.
BRENDA www.brenda-enzymes.info
This is a database of enzymes, which includes kinetic data, as well as data on inhibitors, activators, cofactors, etc.
SABIO-RK sabiork.h-its.org/
The SABIO-RK (System for the Analysis of Biochemical Pathways - Reaction Kinetics) is a web-based application based on the SABIO relational database that contains information about biochemical reactions, their kinetic equations with their parameters, and the experimental conditions under which these parameters were measured. It aims to support modellers in the setting-up of models of biochemical networks, but it is also useful for experimentalists or researchers with interest in biochemical reactions and their kinetics.
KEGG www.genome.jp/kegg/
KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) is a database of biological systems, consisting of genetic building blocks of genes and proteins (KEGG GENES), chemical building blocks of both endogenous and exogenous substances (KEGG LIGAND), molecular wiring diagrams of interaction and reaction networks (KEGG PATHWAY), and hierarchies and relationships of various biological objects (KEGG BRITE). KEGG provides a reference knowledge base for linking genomes to biological systems and also to environments by the processes of PATHWAY mapping and BRITE mapping.
Structure Function Linkage Database sfld.rbvi.ucsf.edu/
The SFLD is a database of enzyme reaction mechanisms, this database focusses on specific superfamilies. MACiE also links to this where there are common PDB codes.
EzCatDB mbs.cbrc.jp/EzCatDB/
A database of enzyme reaction mechanisms. Similar to MACiE, but has a lower level of detail, also has more entries. MACiE also links to this where there are common PDB codes.
Enzyme Structures Database www.ebi.ac.uk/thornton-srv/databases/enzymes/

PDBbind sw16.im.med.umich.edu/databases/pdbbind/index.jsp
The PDBbind database is designed to provide a collection of experimentally measured binding affinity data (Kd, Ki, and IC50) exclusively for the protein-ligand complexes available in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). All of the binding affinity data compiled in this database are cited from original references.

PROSITE consists of documentation entries describing protein domains, families and functional sites as well as associated patterns and profiles to identify them.
Pfam pfam.sanger.ac.uk
The Pfam database is a large collection of protein families, each represented by multiple sequence alignments and hidden Markov models (HMMs).
InterPro www.ebi.ac.uk/interpro
InterPro is an integrated database of predictive protein "signatures" used for the classification and automatic annotation of proteins and genomes. InterPro classifies sequences at superfamily, family and subfamily levels, predicting the occurrence of functional domains, repeats and important sites. InterPro adds in-depth annotation, including GO terms, to the protein signatures.
UniProtKB www.uniprot.org
The mission of UniProt is to provide the scientific community with a comprehensive, high quality and freely accessible resource of protein sequence and functional information. UniProt is comprised of four components, each optimised for different uses. The UniProt Knowledgebase (UniProtKB) is the central access point for extensive curated protein information, including function, classification, and cross-reference. It consists of two sections: UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot which is manually annotated and is reviewed and UniProtKB/TrEMBL which is automatically annotated and is not reviewed. The UniProt Reference Clusters (UniRef) databases provide clustered sets of sequences from the UniProtKB and selected UniProt Archive records to obtain complete coverage of sequence space at several resolutions while hiding redundant sequences. The UniProt Archive (UniParc) is a comprehensive repository, used to keep track of sequences and their identifiers. The UniProt Metagenomic and Environmental Sequences (UniMES) database is a repository specifically developed for metagenomic and environmental data.
