Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for searching and ranking molecules based on specificity. To this end, a processor receives a request to search for molecules that correspond to biological features, and generates a mapping of molecules to the biological features by searching publications for a reference to a biological feature in connection with a molecule, and responsively adding to the mapping any found references. The processor determines a respective specificity score for each respective molecule of the plurality of molecules by determining which of the plurality of biological features are mapped to each respective molecule, and for each such respective biological feature, in response to determining that there is not more than one concrete instance that is mapped to the respective molecule, incrementing the respective specificity score by a unit. The processor generates a ranking based on the respective specificity scores and outputs the ranking.

Abstract: The present invention provides a compound of Formula (I) (represented as tautomers Ia and Ib) or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, which are KDM5 inhibitors.
