BioCyc: A Collection of Pathway/Genome Databases
We now have access to BioCyc, a collection of Pathway/Genome Databases (PGDBs). You can search BioCyc by gene, protein, enzyme, or metabolic pathway. You can use advanced tools to view metabolic diagrams, to perform data analysis, and to compare organisms. You can register for a free BioCyc account if you would like to customize your viewing preferences, to create SmartTables to store datasets, and to run and save metabolic models. You can export high-quality metabolic diagrams and create your own PGDB from anContinue reading “BioCyc: A Collection of Pathway/Genome Databases”
