Database in which Compounds are classified according to diseases

Is there any database available in which compounds are classified according to diseases and is downloadable? For example all the compounds which are involved in Alzheimer disease. Regards.

proteomics biochemistry

Did you check NCBI? Like PubChem or other chem. databases in NCBI?

There is a ftp download tab as well.

Yeah I checked but compounds in them are not categorized...

I think you can use OMIM to get the phenotype number and use this ID as the Cross-reference "MIM" identifier in Uniprot: example Alzheimer disease query You also may go over the linked genes to the gene-products.

Thanks.I want compounds not genes or proteins.

Take a look at PharmGKB. An illustrative example.

Thanks but these are only drugs I want all the compounds which are in pathway of diseases.

Can you clarify what you mean by?

compounds which are in pathway of diseases

Compounds which dock with proteins and results in onset or inhibition of diseases.

Hmm that is a pretty tall order. Some of the drugs will fall into the latter class but I am not sure if a lot is known about the first part.

Thats the main problem...Okay thanks for your help..

Try KEGG. Each pathway or disease contains compounds (entry ID Cxxxxx). http://www.genome.jp/kegg/pathway.html

Be aware of the fact that KEGG is paid subscription nowadays for ftp downloads.
