Query parameters

returningstring

Comma-separated list of fields to return. Modifies the output shape. To return all keys at a given level, enumerate them or use the wildcard, '*'. For more information, click here.

Request body

colorstring nullable

The hex color code of the monomer visual symbol

customMolecularWeightnumber double nullable

Optional molecular weight value that the user can provide to override the calculated molecular weight

namestring

Name of the monomer

smilesstring

The chemical structure in SMILES format.

symbolstring

User-defined identifier of the monomer, unique on the monomer type.

visualSymbol'DIAMOND_FILLED' | 'DIAMOND_HOLLOW' | 'DIAMOND_DASHED' | 'STAR_FILLED' | 'STAR_HOLLOW' | 'TRIANGLE_FILLED' | 'TRIANGLE_HOLLOW' | 'DYAD_FILLED' | 'DYAD_HOLLOW' | 'CLOVER_FILLED' | 'CLOVER_HOLLOW' | 'TRIAD_FILLED' | 'TRIAD_HOLLOW' | 'RECTANGLE_FILLED' | 'RECTANGLE_HOLLOW' | 'LETTERS_P' | 'LETTERS_PS'

The shape of the monomer visual symbol.

naturalAnalogstring

Symbol for the natural equivalent of the monomer. Acceptable natural analog values include IUPAC bases, r, and p.

Response

Created

attachmentPointsstring[]

A list of the capping group present at each location where the monomer can form a bond with other monomers

calculatedMolecularWeightnumber double

The molecular weight of the monomer as calculated by RDKit based on the monomer chemical structure

canonicalSmilesstring

The canonicalized chemical structure in SMILES format.

createdAtstring date-time

DateTime the monomer was created.

customMolecularWeightnumber double nullable

Optional molecular weight value that the user can provide to override the calculated molecular weight

exactMolecularWeightnumber double

The exact molecular weight of the monomer as calculated by RDKit based on the monomer chemical structure

idstring

ID of the monomer

modifiedAtstring date-time

monomerType'BACKBONE' | 'BRANCH'

The part of the nucleotide structure that the monomer fits into, i.e. backbone or branch

namestring

Name of the monomer

naturalAnalogstring

Symbol for the natural equivalent of the monomer. Acceptable natural analog values include IUPAC bases, r, and p.

originalSmilesstring nullable
