Metabolic pathways variability and sequence/networks comparisons [PDF]
Background In this work a simple method for the computation of relative similarities between homologous metabolic network modules is presented. The method is similar to classical sequence alignment and allows for the generation of phenotypic trees ...

Predicting metabolic pathways from metabolic networks with limited biological knowledge [PDF]
Understanding the metabolism of new species (e.g. endophytic fungi that produce fuel) have tremendous impact on human lives. Based on predicted proteins and existing reaction databases, one can construct the metabolic network for the species. Next is to identify critical metabolic pathways from the network.

The global integrative network: integration of signaling and metabolic pathways
The crosstalk between signaling and metabolic pathways has been known to play key roles in human diseases and plant biological processes. The integration of signaling and metabolic pathways can provide an essential reference framework for crosstalk analysis. However, current databases use distinct structures to present signaling and metabolic pathways,

Enumerating all possible biosynthetic pathways in metabolic networks [PDF]
Abstract Exhaustive identification of all possible alternate pathways that exist in metabolic networks can provide valuable insights into cellular metabolism. With the growing number of metabolic reconstructions, there is a need for an efficient method to enumerate pathways, which can also scale well to large ...
