ClassyFire is a web-based application for automated structural classification of chemical compounds.
The classyfireR
R package provides access to the ClassyFire RESTful API for retrieving existing compound classifications and submitted structures to the web-server for classification.
classyfireR can be installed from CRAN or, for the latest development version, directly from GitHub using the remotes
package.
install.packages('classyfireR')
::install_github('aberHRML/classyfireR') remotes
To retrieve classifications that are already available simply provide an InChI key to the get_classification
function.
library(classyfireR)

#> └─subclass : Amino acids, peptides, and analogues
#> └─level 5 : Amino acids and derivatives
#> └─level 6 : Alpha amino acids and derivatives
#> └─level 7 : Histidine and derivatives
The result of each classification is stored in a single S4 (ClassyFire) object. To retrieve multiple classification, simply iterate over a vector of InChI Keys’
InChI_Keys <- c('BRMWTNUJHUMWMS-LURJTMIESA-N',
'MDHYEMXUFSJLGV-UHFFFAOYSA-N',
'MYYIAHXIVFADCU-QMMMGPOBSA-N')
purrr::map(InChI_Keys, get_classification)
Classification_List <-#> ✔ BRMWTNUJHUMWMS-LURJTMIESA-N
#> ✔ MDHYEMXUFSJLGV-UHFFFAOYSA-N
#> ✔ MYYIAHXIVFADCU-QMMMGPOBSA-N
For classification submission using SMILES, this can be performed by supplying multiple SMILES to the submit_query
function. The results from all of the inputs, will be returned to a single S4 Query
class.
c(MOL1 = 'CCCOCC', MOL2 = 'CNC(CC1=CN=CN1)C(=O)O')
Input <-
Query <- submit_query(label = 'query_test',
input = Input,
type = 'STRUCTURE')
Query#> ── ClassyFire Query Object ─────────────────────────────── classyfireR v0.3.6 ──
#> Object Size: 27.2 Kb
#>
#> 2 structures classified
#> ● MOL1 : InChIKey=NVJUHMXYKCUMQA-UHFFFAOYSA-N
#> ● MOL2 : InChIKey=CYZKJBZEIFWZSR-UHFFFAOYSA-N
There are a series of accessor methods which will work with either object type to return results from a specific slot in the object.
