The experimentally established mechanism targets of Metam. The predicted profile below is derived independently by chemical similarity — agreement is a validation signal, a miss is honest.
Similar compounds — the chemically nearest patent molecules
Nearest neighbours by Morgan-fingerprint cosine across the patent-compound collection, with each neighbour's top predicted target and the predicted targets it shares with this molecule.

Similarity is cosine over the 2,048-bit Morgan fingerprint (≈ Tanimoto). Identical fingerprints score 1.00.
Patent provenance — the patents this molecule appears in, and who filed them
Appears in 13721 patents — a generic fragment claimed broadly, so it's down-weighted as IP noise. Top by claim status then date:
