The '''Molecular Query Language''' ('''MQL''') was designed forto allowingallow more complex and, problem -specific search methods in [[chemoinformatics]]. TheIn [[querycontrast language]]to isthe basedwidely on anused [[extendedSmiles Backus–Naurarbitrary form]]target (EBNF) using [[JavaCC]]. In contrast to [[Smiles_arbitrary_target_specificationspecification|SMARTS]] queries, thisMQL allowsprovides for the specification of spatial and physicochemical properties of atoms and bonds. FurthermoreAdditionally, it can iteasily be easily extended to handle non-atom-based graphs, calledalso known as "reduced feature" graphs.

The [[query language]] is based on an [[extended Backus–Naur form]] (EBNF) using [[JavaCC]].
