Pathway Tools
Description
The Pathway Tools software is a bioinformatics software system for pathway analysis of genomes, and for creating Pathway/Genome Databases (PGDBs). A pathway/genome database (PGDB), such as EcoCyc, is a bioinformatics DB that integrates genomic data with detailed functional annotations of the genome, such as descriptions of metabolic and signaling pathways. A PGDB is a type of model-organism DB.
Pathway Tools supports extensive functionality including prediction, interactive editing, querying, and visualization of metabolic pathways and related datatypes including reactions, metabolites, and enzymes. It also includes query, visualization, and editing support for operons, genes, proteins, and chromosomes.
Pathway Tools can be coupled with other genome browsers to add support for pathways to an existing MOD.
Pathway Tools was developed by Peter D. Karp and coworkers at the Bioinformatics Research Group at SRI International.
