ChEMBL bioactivities
434 potent at pChembl≥5 of 436 total, top 50 by pChembl (potency: 10 = 0.1 nM, 6 = 1 µM).
PubChem BioAssay actives
4 with measured affinity, of 5 total; 3 most potent distinct compounds. Largely complementary to BindingDB; screening values are coarse (µM, 4 dp), so sub-nM hits tie at the floor.
