CHECK
Structure integrity check and normalization of chemical state.
 
Features
Features Description
input file format SDFile
output file format SDFile
control ionization state can produce a neutral form of the structure
hydrogen atoms adds or strips away hydrogen atoms
nitro groups controls ionization state of nitro groups (ionic or uncharged)
remove salt removes smallest counterion or removes molecule identical to salt templates provided in a separate file
speed and reliability processes a data set of 100,100 small to medium-sized molecules in 723 sec on a 1.0 GHz workstation (7 ms/cpd, 100% conversion rate)
User Interface
System Requirements
  • Microsoft Windows NT/2000/XP
  • SUSE Linux (Release 8/9/10, Kernel 2.4/2.6 for x86, 32/64bit)
  • RedHat Linux (Release 8/9/Enterprise, Kernel 2.4/2.6 for x86, 32bit)
  • Sun SPARC, Solaris 2.9 or higher
  • Silicon Graphics, IRIX 6.5
Additional Info
CHECK currently provides two methods for removing counterions from the input file based either on the size of the molecule or on the specification of given counterions.
Both methods are demonstrated here with three structures:
structure no. 1 structure no. 2 structure no. 3
  1. The default algorithm internally splits each input record into molecules and discards all but the largest molecule, as determined by the atom count, including hydrogen atoms.
    desalted no. 1 desalted no. 2 desalted no. 3
  2. Specified larger counterions can be removed by providing a salt file to the program. Molecules found in that file have precedence for deletion from the input record, even if they are larger than their counterparts. In this case, the salt file contains the pyridinium ion, which is removed from each structure.
    desalted no. 1 desalted no. 2 desalted no. 3
