The BindingDB
The BindingDB is a public, web-accessible database of measured binding affinities for biomolecules, genetically or chemically modified biomolecules, and synthetic compounds. The database contains 15,000 small molecule ligands with 30,000 measured affinities to proteins represented in the PDB. Nearly all the data were extracted from the medicinal chemistry literature. The Binding Database is based at the Center for Advanced Research in Biotechnology, a center of the University of Maryland Biotechnology Institute, Rockville, Maryland, USA.

Tapping the sun
"More energy in the form of sunlight strikes Earth in one hour than all of the energy consumed by humans in an entire year." This staggering statistic is a good reason to re-focus on solar energy. ACS publicationÕs C&En devotes its cover story to: Òbasic chemistry drives development of new low-cost solar cells.

Bisphenol A safety uncertainty
A clutch of papers raising concerns about the health effects and environmental impact of bisphenol A are discussed this week in the American Chemical Society magazine C&EN. The magazine reports that low levels of human exposure to bisphenol A (BPA), a compound widely used in the manufacture of polycarbonate and epoxy resins, could have adverse health affects. Four toxicology studies demonstrate health effects as diverse as increased rates of breast and prostate cancer, reproductive abnormalities, obesity, and insulin-dependent diabetes. The magazines also reports that, despite growing evidence of toxic effects in laboratory animals, manufacturers of BPA say the product is safe. In stark contrast with the papers highlighted in the article, C&EN also reports that the European Food Safety Authority stated recently that there are no adverse effects of BPA.
