Chemical Properties

ChemSpider: RSC resource searchable by name, CAS RN, SMILES string, InChI key, chemical properties.  Also contains name, synonym, experimental and predicted properties data

PubChem- PubChem provides information on the biological activities of small molecules. It is a component of NIH's Molecular Libraries Roadmap Initiative. Database Help

NIST Webbook- Provides thermochemical, thermophysical, and ion energetics data compiled by NIST under the Standard Reference Data Program. Database Help

 


Spectra

SDBS - Spectral Database for Organic Compounds SDBS is an integrated spectral database system for organic compounds, which includes 6 different types of spectra. Database Help

Biochemistry: Protein, Nucleotide, DNA, RNA, etc.

National Center for Biotechnology Information (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov )
The premier center in the United States for molecular biology databases, including PubMed. For amino sequence/protein structure, try searching the Protein database.  The Nucleotide database is good for finding gene nucleotide sequence.

Protein Data Bank (http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/home/home.do)
The RCSB PDB provides a variety of tools and resources for studying the structures of biological macromolecules and their relationships to sequence, function, and disease. The RCSB is a member of the wwPDB whose mission is to ensure that the PDB archive remains an international resource with uniform data. This site offers tools for browsing, searching, and reporting that utilize the data resulting from ongoing efforts to create a more consistent and comprehensive archive.
