Databases & systems available
Enzyme function and metabolic pathways :
- KEGG , EcoCyc , MPW-EMP, PathDB, PFBP (metabolic, regulatory and signal transduction pathways) & BRENDA - enzyme function only.
Querying facilities - various levels of complexity. Simple browsing & basic queries (string search on the values of selected fields), to pathway analysis.
KEGG & CSNdb provide path-finding tools, which find all paths between two specified elements, or from a specified element to any other. The results of the path finding query can be displayed by colouring the paths found on pre-drawn static maps (KEGG), or on a dynamically generated diagram (CSNdb).
KEGG, EcoCyc & PathDB can also be downloaded and installed locally, offering more extended querying capabilities.
