Chapter 18

Metabolic Maps

From the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes. Choose a pathway from the list, then there is a drop-down menu from which to choose an organism, and the pathway for that organism is displayed. Enzymes are indicated by their IUPAC numbers, and clicking on an enzyme number connects to a page with extensive information about the enzyme and links to protein databases. For more information, consult the instructions page for use of this information.
Boehringer Mannheim Pathways. Enter a compound name to retrieve links to pathways involving the compound.
