Hi,
Am a bit puzzled by why the MMP Molecule Fragment (RDKit) node yields an empty table from approx 7000 hERG inhibitors that I pulled from ChEMBL. The node chews on the data set for quite some time, is stuck at 86%, then finishes…but without any results or error messages. All output is directed to the second port and states ‘No fragmentations generated’ for all compounds. I use the ‘non-functional group single bonds’ setting, rest is default. As far as I know all my structures are devoid of counter ions, unique, and have unique identifiers.
The version I have is 1.26.0.v202003171242 running on Windows. I noted that the node itself is plain yellow, i.e. it doesn’t have the red-green-blue diamond graphics, while the succeeding Fragments to MMPs node has this.
Grateful for feedback. Thanks/Evert
Hi Evert,
That certainly sounds like strange behaviour - would you be able to share your workflow so I can take a look at what is happening?

Sure thing, here it comes. I noted that the node is struggling for a long time at 48%, unsure why.
Thanks/Evert

Can you include the actual data?
As it stands the Table Reader node is looking for a table that exists on your computer.
Sorry, please try the attached table as input. Thanks/Evert

Thanks @evert.homan - sorry, I dropped the ball with this one. The failure is because the number of cuts is set to 10:
If you change it to 1 (which I assume is what you wanted), then you get ~180,000 rows in the first output table:
A couple of points - when the node was hanging on 48%, if you look at the node view (Right-click on the node and select View: Fragmentation Progress
then you can see that the buffer of processed rows has filled up - this happens when there is row which is taking a lot of time to process. In the example below, the pending queue is empty - i.e. all the rows processed have been added to the output table:

Also, you dont actually need the RDKit from Molecule
node - the MMP Molecule Fragment (RDKit)
node will do the conversion from any of the common formats for you directly.
Hope that helps,
Steve

This certainly helps, I can now reproduce your first output of 180K rows, and feed it further into the workflow.
Much appreciated/Evert
