-A structured classification of chemical compounds of biological relevance.
+A freely available dictionary of molecular entities focused on ‘small’ chemical compounds.
+The term ‘molecular entity’ refers to any constitutionally or isotopically distinct atom, molecule, ion, ion pair, radical, radical ion, complex, conformer, etc., identifiable as a separately distinguishable entity. The molecular entities in question are either products of nature or synthetic products used to intervene in the processes of living organisms.
+
+ChEBI incorporates an ontological classification, whereby the relationships between molecular entities or classes of entities and their parents and/or children are specified.
+
+ChEBI uses nomenclature, symbolism and terminology endorsed by the following international scientific bodies:
+
+- International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC)
+- Nomenclature Committee of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (NC-IUBMB)
+
+Molecules directly encoded by the genome (e.g. nucleic acids, proteins and peptides derived from proteins by cleavage) are not as a rule included in ChEBI.
