On http://sparql.wikipathways.org/ WikiPathways content is replicated in a SPARQL endpoint. Queries can be performed in three ways:
1. Either go to the endpoint directly and create your own SPARQL query.
2. Copy and paste an example query listed below in the endpoint.
3. Adapt a code examples to programmatically make a SPARQL query
This project is written up in the "Using the Semantic Web for Rapid Integration of WikiPathways with Other Biological Online Data Resources" paper.

Prefixes
Within the example queries, we have omitted the prefixes. These prefixes are automatically used in the SPARQL endpoint. The following prefixes are used in the WikiPathways RDF:
PREFIX gpml: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/gpml#> PREFIX wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> PREFIX cur: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#Curation:> PREFIX wprdf: <http://rdf.wikipathways.org/> PREFIX biopax: <http://www.biopax.org/release/biopax-level3.owl#> PREFIX cas: <https://identifiers.org/cas/> PREFIX dc: <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/> PREFIX dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/> PREFIX ncbigene:<https://identifiers.org/ncbigene/> PREFIX pubmed: <http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/> PREFIX rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> PREFIX skos: <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#> PREFIX xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#>
Example queries
Queries with a * require a bit more time for results.
Metadata queries
List the information about the data sets in the SPARQL endpoint:
select distinct ?dataset (str(?titleLit) as ?title) ?date ?license where { ?dataset a void:Dataset ; dcterms:title ?titleLit ; dcterms:license ?license ; pav:createdOn ?date . }

FILTER NOT EXISTS { ?pathway a wp:Interaction } . FILTER NOT EXISTS { ?pathway a wp:Pathway } . FILTER regex(str(?label), "CYP"). }
Get all the genes on a particular pathway
List all the genes and proteins (wp:GeneProduct) associated with a particular pathway WPID.
PREFIX wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> PREFIX dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> select distinct ?pathway (str(?label) as ?geneProduct) where { ?geneProduct a wp:GeneProduct . ?geneProduct rdfs:label ?label . ?geneProduct dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . ?pathway a wp:Pathway . ?pathway dcterms:identifier "WP1560"^^xsd:string . }
Count the number of pathways per ontology term
In WikiPathways, pathways can be tagged with ontology terms from Pathway, Cell Line and Disease ontology. The following query returns a pathway count for each term from any of the available ontologies. These terms are collectively modeled as wp:pathwayOntology; but this includes all ontologies, not just the "Pathway" ontology.
SELECT DISTINCT ?pwOntologyTerm count(?pwOntologyTerm) as ?pathwayCount WHERE { ?pathwayRDF wp:ontologyTag ?pwOntologyTerm . } ORDER BY DESC(?pathwayCount)
Get all pathways with a particular ontology term
In WikiPathways, pathways can be tagged with ontology terms from Pathway, Cell Line and Disease ontology. The following query returns a list of pathways tagged with PW_0000296.
PREFIX obo: <http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/> SELECT ?pathway (str(?titleLit) AS ?title) WHERE { ?pathwayRDF wp:ontologyTag obo:PW_0000296 ; foaf:page ?pathway ; dc:title ?titleLit . }
Get all ontology terms for a particular pathway
List all the ontology terms tagged on a particular pathway.
SELECT (?o as ?pwOntologyTerm) (str(?titleLit) as ?title) ?pathway WHERE { ?pathwayRDF wp:ontologyTag ?o ; foaf:page ?pathway ; dc:title ?titleLit ; dcterms:identifier "WP1560"^^xsd:string . FILTER (! regex(str(?pathway), "group")) }
Get all Reactome pathways
List all the ontology terms tagged on a particular pathway.
PREFIX cur: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#Curation:> SELECT DISTINCT ?pathway (str(?titleLit) as ?title) WHERE { ?pathway wp:ontologyTag cur:Reactome_Approved ; dc:title ?titleLit . }
Get all Proteins from Community pathways
Obtain all Protein DataNodes (so not GeneProducts) from specific communities. Note: All community tags are available in the WikiPathways SPARQL endpoint now (the "Blau" community was updated to "IEM").
PREFIX wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> PREFIX dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> PREFIX cur: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#Curation:> SELECT DISTINCT ?pathway (str(?label) as ?Protein) WHERE { ?pathway wp:ontologyTag cur:Lipids ; # Other communities: AOP; CIRM_Related ; COVID19 ; IEM ; RareDiseases ; SGD_Approved ; WormBase_Approved a wp:Pathway . ?protein a wp:Protein ; rdfs:label ?label ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . }
Get all pathways with PubMed references
SELECT DISTINCT ?pathway ?pubmed WHERE {?pubmed a wp:PublicationReference . ?pubmed dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway } ORDER BY ?pathway
Get all pathways with a particular PubMed reference
SELECT DISTINCT ?pathway ?pubmed WHERE { ?pubmed a wp:PublicationReference . ?pubmed dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . FILTER regex(str(?pubmed), "14769483$") } ORDER BY ?pathway
The $ at the end of the PubMed identifier ensures that, for example, 147694831 does not match too; the regex instruction '$' means "end of the string".
Get all pathways and the number of refences per pathway
SELECT DISTINCT ?pathway COUNT(?pubmed) AS ?numberOfReferences WHERE {?pubmed a wp:PublicationReference . ?pubmed dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway } ORDER BY DESC(?numberOfReferences)
Get a full dump of all pathways and their pathway ontological terms
PREFIX rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> PREFIX dc: <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/> PREFIX foaf: <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/> PREFIX schema: <http://schema.org/> PREFIX wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> PREFIX dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> SELECT DISTINCT ?depicts (str(?titleLit) as ?title) (str(?speciesLabelLit) as ?speciesLabel) ?identifier ?ontology WHERE { ?pathway foaf:page ?depicts . ?pathway dc:title ?titleLit . ?pathway wp:organism ?species . ?pathway wp:organismName ?speciesLabelLit . ?pathway dc:identifier ?identifier . OPTIONAL {?pathway wp:ontologyTag ?ontology .} }
Count how many genes from a list occur in one or more pathways
The gene list is given in the line starting with VALUES. For this example, we use the HGNC gene nomenclature.
Other gene IDs can be used to fill the list. However, keep in mind they use different URLs and therefore the prefix (first line of query) should be adapted. A list of these URLs can be found on identifiers.org (or by looking at the "raw" RDF files).
prefix hgnc: <https://identifiers.org/hgnc.symbol/> select distinct ?pathwayRes (str(?wpid) as ?pathway) (str(?title) as ?pathwayTitle) (count(distinct ?hgncId) AS ?GenesInPWs) where { VALUES ?hgncId {hgnc:GPD1L hgnc:SCN3B hgnc:BAD} ?gene a wp:GeneProduct ; dcterms:identifier ?id ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pathwayRes ; wp:bdbHgncSymbol ?hgncId . ?pathwayRes a wp:Pathway ; wp:organismName "Homo sapiens"^^xsd:string ; dcterms:identifier ?wpid ; dc:title ?title . } ORDER BY DESC(?GenesInPWs)
LIPID MAPS related queries:
Count amount of lipids per pathways in WikiPathways with LIPID MAPS identifier
Converts all Metabolite identifiers to LipidMaps (provided by BridgeDb), and create an ordered list of pathways including lipid compounds.
prefix lipidmaps: <https://identifiers.org/lipidmaps/> select distinct ?pathwayRes (str(?wpid) as ?pathway) (str(?title) as ?pathwayTitle) (count(distinct ?lipidID) AS ?LipidsInPWs) where { ?metabolite a wp:Metabolite ; dcterms:identifier ?id ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pathwayRes ; wp:bdbLipidMaps ?lipidID . ?pathwayRes a wp:Pathway ; wp:organismName "Homo sapiens"^^xsd:string ; dcterms:identifier ?wpid ; dc:title ?title . } ORDER BY DESC(?LipidsInPWs)
Count amount of lipids per LIPID MAPS ontology class
Counts unique LIPID MAPS identifier (provided by BridgeDb) for the fatty acid (FA) class, other examples are provided as a comment.
select count(distinct ?lipidID) as ?IndividualLipidsPerClass_FA where { ?metabolite a wp:Metabolite ; dcterms:identifier ?id ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pathwayRes ; wp:bdbLipidMaps ?lipidID . ?pathwayRes a wp:Pathway ; wp:organismName "Homo sapiens"^^xsd:string ; dcterms:identifier ?wpid ; dc:title ?title . FILTER regex(str(?lipidID), "FA" ). # Other classes: GL, GP, SP, ST, PR, SL, PK }
Find pathways per LIPID MAPS ontology class, sorted on amount of unique lipids
Filter all unique LIPID MAPS identifier (provided by BridgeDb) for the fatty acid (FA) class, and find all pathways with individual lipids in there.
select distinct ?pathwayRes (str(?wpid) as ?pathway) (str(?title) as ?pathwayTitle) (count(distinct ?lipidID) AS ?FA_LipidsInPWs) where { ?metabolite a wp:Metabolite ; dcterms:identifier ?id ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pathwayRes ; wp:bdbLipidMaps ?lipidID . ?pathwayRes a wp:Pathway ; wp:organismName "Homo sapiens"^^xsd:string ; dcterms:identifier ?wpid ; dc:title ?title . FILTER regex(str(?lipidID), "FA" ). # Fatty acids, Other classes: GL, GP, SP, ST, PR, SL, PK } ORDER BY DESC(?FA_LipidsInPWs)
Data statistics oriented queries
Count the number of metabolites per species
Though strictly speaking, it guesstimates it, because it counts the number of unique metabolite identifiers. Normalization in the RDF generation code ensures we do not double count metabolites with identifiers from different databases, but it still differentially counts metabolites with different charge states.
PREFIX gpml: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/gpml#> PREFIX dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> PREFIX dc: <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/> PREFIX rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> select (count(distinct ?metabolite) as ?count) (str(?label) as ?species) where { ?metabolite a wp:Metabolite ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pw . ?pw dc:title ?title ; wp:organism ?organism ; wp:organismName ?label . } GROUP BY ?label ORDER BY DESC(?count)
Interaction oriented queries

Get downstream adjacent nodes from a source
A directed interaction always runs from source to target. (eg. s --> t)
PREFIX wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> SELECT DISTINCT ?source ?label ?target ?label1 ?pathway ?interaction WHERE { ?source dc:identifier <https://identifiers.org/ensembl/ENSG00000125845> . ?source dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . ?pathway a wp:Pathway . ?interaction dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . ?interaction a wp:Interaction . ?interaction wp:source ?source . ?interaction wp:target ?target . ?source rdfs:label ?label . ?target rdfs:label ?label1 . }

Get the number of normalized identifiers by data source
This query gives some idea of how the interaction identifier mapping database works in practice:
PREFIX wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> PREFIX dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> PREFIX dc: <http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/> SELECT DISTINCT (STR(?sourceLit) AS ?source) ?normalizedIdentifier (COUNT(DISTINCT ?identifier) AS ?count) WHERE { VALUES ?normalizedIdentifier { wp:bdbRhea wp:bdbReactome } ?interaction ?normalizedIdentifier ?identifier ; dc:source ?sourceLit . } GROUP BY ?sourceLit ?normalizedIdentifier ORDER BY DESC(?count) ?source
Datasource oriented queries
Get all datasources currently captured in WikiPathways
SELECT DISTINCT (str(?datasourceLit) as ?datasource) WHERE { ?concept dc:source ?datasourceLit }
Get the number of entries per datasource in WikiPathways
SELECT DISTINCT (str(?datasourceLit) as ?datasource) (count(?dataNode) as ?numberEntries) WHERE { ?concept dc:source ?datasourceLit ; wp:isAbout ?dataNode . } ORDER BY DESC(?numberEntries)
Count the identifiers per data source
SELECT (str(?datasourceLit) as ?datasource) (count(distinct ?identifier) AS ?numberEntries) WHERE { ?concept dc:source ?datasourceLit . ?concept dc:identifier ?identifier }
Count the identifiers per data source and order them from high to low
SELECT (str(?datasourceLit) as ?datasource) (count(distinct ?identifier) AS ?numberEntries) WHERE { ?concept dc:source ?datasourceLit . ?concept dc:identifier ?identifier } ORDER BY DESC(?numberEntries)
Return all compounds annotated with the "ChEMBL compound" as data source and the pathways they are in
SELECT DISTINCT ?identifier ?pathway WHERE { ?concept dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . ?concept dc:source "ChEMBL compound"^^xsd:string . ?concept dc:identifier ?identifier . }
Curators oriented queries
Get the pathway with the erroneous data source "null"
SELECT DISTINCT ?identifier ?pathway ?label WHERE { ?concept dc:source "null"^^xsd:string . ?concept dc:identifier ?identifier . ?concept dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . ?concept rdfs:label ?label }
Get all geneproducts that lack either a DataSource or an Identifier
prefix wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> prefix dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> select distinct ?pathway ?label where {?geneProduct a wp:GeneProduct . ?geneProduct rdfs:label ?label . ?geneProduct dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . FILTER regex(str(?geneProduct), "^node"). FILTER regex(str(?pathway), "^http"). }
Get entities with more than one identifier
select ?entity count(?identifier) as ?count where { ?entity <http://purl.org/dc/terms/identifier> ?identifier . } order by desc(?count)
PubChem-compound 1004
Warning: may time out, which indicates there is no current use of this identifier value.
Wrongly used for phosphate. It is the uncharged compound. Phosphate is, instead, and particularly thinkgs like "Pi", CID 1061 for ortho-phosphate, aka [PO4]2-.
prefix wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> prefix dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> prefix xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#> select ?pathway ?source where { ?mb dc:source ?source ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway ; dcterms:identifier "1004"^^xsd:string . }
Outdated HMDB identifiers
These results show HMDB identifiers used in WikiPathways but that are revoked or have become secondary identifiers.
prefix wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> prefix dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> select distinct (str(?identifierStr) as ?identifier) where { ?mb a wp:Metabolite ; dc:source "HMDB"^^xsd:string ; dcterms:identifier ?identifierStr . OPTIONAL { ?mb wp:bdbHmdb ?bridgedb . } FILTER (!BOUND(?bridgedb)) } order by ?identifierStr
Metabolites not classified as such
One can list all data sources for non-metabolites with this query.
prefix wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> prefix dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> select (str(?datasourceLit) as ?datasource) (count(?identifier) as ?count) where { ?mb dc:source ?datasourceLit ; dcterms:identifier ?identifier . FILTER NOT EXISTS { ?mb a wp:Metabolite } } order by desc(?count)
That mostly lists gene identifier sources, etc, but watch out for the metabolite identifier data sources. For example, metabolites not marked as such but with a metabolite identifier can be found this way. Down the list is CAS (but genes are chemicals too...), and a few minor more:
HMDB 4 ChEBI 3 GLYCAN 3 COMPOUND 3 PubChem 2
I would expect GLYCAN and COMPOUND to be misnomers of the matching KEGG subsets.
Metabolites sometimes marked as DataNode@Type Metabolite
Based on label comparisons, we can find things that are labeled the same as a data node with the same label. Of course, this can give false positives, because genes can be incorrectly marked as metabolite in some pathway, but that is another SPARQL query. Another reasons is that sometimes genes and metabolites actually have the same name!
prefix wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> prefix dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> prefix xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#> select ?pathway ?nonmb ?mb (str(?labelLit) as ?label) where { ?nonmb rdfs:label ?labelLit . ?mb rdfs:label ?labelLit . ?nonmb dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . FILTER ( ?nonmb != ?mb ) FILTER NOT EXISTS { ?nonmb a wp:Metabolite } FILTER EXISTS { ?pathway a wp:Pathway } FILTER EXISTS { ?mb a wp:Metabolite } }
Metabolites with too many labels
This query can result in false positives too, particularly with the new RDF.
prefix wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> prefix dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> select distinct ?mb count(distinct ?labelLit) as ?labelCount where { ?mb a wp:Metabolite ; rdfs:label ?labelLit ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . ?pathway a wp:Pathway . } order by desc(?labelCount) ?mb
And get the actual labels (and more) with:
describe <https://identifiers.org/hmdb/HMDB0002174>
Or use this one, but mind that pathway/label combinations are combinatorial, because they share the same node:
select distinct ?pathway (str(?labelLit) as ?label) where { <https://identifiers.org/hmdb/HMDB0001401> a wp:Metabolite; rdfs:label ?labelLit ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . ?pathway a wp:Pathway . } order by ?pathway
Metabolites with an Entrez Gene identifier
prefix wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> prefix dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> prefix xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#> select distinct ?pathway ?mb (str(?labelLit) as ?label) (str(?identifierLit) as ?identifier) where { ?mb a wp:Metabolite ; rdfs:label ?labelLit ; dc:source "Entrez Gene"^^xsd:string ; dcterms:identifier ?identifierLit ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . ?pathway a wp:Pathway . } order by ?pathway
Metabolites without a link to Wikidata
PREFIX wdt: <http://www.wikidata.org/prop/direct/> SELECT DISTINCT ?metabolite WHERE { ?metabolite a wp:Metabolite . OPTIONAL { ?metabolite wp:bdbWikidata ?wikidata . } FILTER (!BOUND(?wikidata)) }
A variant sorting the metabolites by the number of pathways they occur in:
PREFIX wdt: <http://www.wikidata.org/prop/direct/> SELECT ?metabolite (count(DISTINCT ?pathwayRes) as ?pathways) WHERE { ?metabolite a wp:Metabolite ; dcterms:identifier ?id ; dcterms:isPartOf ?pathwayRes . ?pathwayRes a wp:Pathway . OPTIONAL { ?metabolite wp:bdbWikidata ?wikidata . } FILTER (!BOUND(?wikidata)) } GROUP BY ?metabolite ORDER BY DESC(?pathways)
And finally, finding double mappings to Wikidata:
PREFIX wdt: <http://www.wikidata.org/prop/direct/> SELECT DISTINCT ?metaboliteID (GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT ?wikidata;separator=", ") AS ?results) WHERE { ?metaboliteID a wp:Metabolite . ?metaboliteID wp:bdbWikidata ?wikidata . ?metaboliteID wp:bdbWikidata ?wikidata2 . FILTER(?wikidata != ?wikidata2) } GROUP BY ?metaboliteID
Pathways without (annotated) datanodes
prefix wp: <http://vocabularies.wikipathways.org/wp#> prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> prefix dcterms: <http://purl.org/dc/terms/> prefix xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#> SELECT DISTINCT ?pathway WHERE{ ?pathway a wp:Pathway. FILTER NOT EXISTS {?node dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway. ?node a wp:DataNode} }
Pathways without literature references
SELECT (STR(?speciesLabelLit) AS ?species) (STR(?titleLit) AS ?title) ?pathway WHERE { ?pathway a wp:Pathway ; dc:title ?titleLit ; wp:organismName ?speciesLabelLit . MINUS { ?pubmed a wp:PublicationReference . ?pubmed dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway } } ORDER BY ASC(?species) ASC(?title)
Or if you just want to know how many these are:
SELECT count(DISTINCT ?pathway) WHERE { ?pathway a wp:Pathway ; dc:title ?titleLit ; wp:organismName ?speciesLabelLit . MINUS { ?pubmed a wp:PublicationReference . ?pubmed dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway } }
Literature queries

Federated queries - !Under Construction!
Other SPARQL endpoints used in the federated queries
Note that the EBI endpoints are not maintained and therefore do not yield results at the moment. We created a mirror for the ChEMBL endpoint at:
- ChEMBL: https://chemblmirror.rdf.bigcat-bioinformatics.org/ (old: https://www.ebi.ac.uk/rdf/services/sparql and http://rdf.farmbio.uu.se/chembl/sparql/ ).
Down/unavailable (EVI):
- Arrayexpress Atlas: http://wwwdev.ebi.ac.uk/fgpt/gxa-sparql/index.jsp
- Reactome endpoint.
Other endpoints:
- Gene Wiki: http://genewiki.semwebinsi.de
- Text mining from Fraunhofer Institutes at University of Bonn: http://ops-virtuoso.scai.fraunhofer.de:8893/sparql
- Wikidata

WikiPathways with Wikidata - !Under Construction!
The following queries are run on the WikiPathways SPARQL endpoint. But you can run federated queries on the Wikidata SPARQL endpoint too. Example queries for that are found here.
Metabolites in Wikipedia with InChIKeys from Wikidata
The corresponding query on Wikidata is here.
PREFIX wdt: <http://www.wikidata.org/prop/direct/> SELECT ?metabolite ?wikidata ?inchikey WHERE { { SELECT ?metabolite ?wikidata WHERE { ?metabolite a wp:Metabolite ; wp:bdbWikidata ?wikidata . } LIMIT 50 } SERVICE <https://query.wikidata.org/sparql> { ?wikidata wdt:P235 ?inchikey . } } LIMIT 50

Code examples
Perl
There is an RDF api available. Below is an example that extracts the data by converting the query into a url and extracts the data as CSV.
#!/usr/bin/perl use LWP::Simple; use URI::Escape; my $sparql = "SELECT DISTINCT ?wpIdentifier ?elementneedsattention ?elementLabel WHERE { ?pathway dc:title ?title . ?elementneedsattention a gpml:requiresCurationAttention . ?elementneedsattention dcterms:isPartOf ?pathway . ?elementneedsattention rdfs:label ?elementLabel . ?pathway wp:organism ?organism . ?pathway foaf:page ?page . ?pathway dc:identifier ?wpIdentifier . ?organism rdfs:label \"Mus musculus\"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string> . } ORDER BY ?wpIdentifier"; my $url = 'https://sparql.wikipathways.org/sparql?default-graph-uri=&query='.uri_escape($sparql).'&format=text%2Fcsv&timeout=0&debug=on'; my $content = get $url; die "Couldn't get $url" unless defined $content; print $content;
Java
For java we recommend the Jena Framework.
import com.hp.hpl.jena.query.Query; import com.hp.hpl.jena.query.QueryExecution; import com.hp.hpl.jena.query.QueryExecutionFactory; import com.hp.hpl.jena.query.QueryFactory; import com.hp.hpl.jena.query.QuerySolution; import com.hp.hpl.jena.query.ResultSet; public class javaCodeExample { public static void main(String[] args) { String sparqlQueryString = "SELECT * WHERE {?s ?p ?o} LIMIT 10"; Query query = QueryFactory.create(sparqlQueryString); QueryExecution queryExecution = QueryExecutionFactory.sparqlService("https://sparql.wikipathways.org/sparql", query); ResultSet resultSet = queryExecution.execSelect(); while (resultSet.hasNext()) { QuerySolution solution = resultSet.next(); System.out.print(solution.get("s")); System.out.print("\t"+solution.get("p")); System.out.println("\t"+solution.get("o")); } } }
php
For php we recommend the arc2: Easy RDF and SPARQL for LAMP systems
R
The R package rrdf can be found and installed from https://github.com/egonw/rrdf.
library(rrdf) sparql.remote( "https://sparql.wikipathways.org/sparql", "SELECT DISTINCT ?p WHERE { ?s ?p ?o }" )
Another option is to use the SPARQL-package (tested on Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS, R-studio version 1.4.1717, R version 4.1.0 (2021-05-18)).
- Note the backslashes in front of the quotation marks in the VALUES claim; this is specifically needed in R to read these characters correctly.
- Note this query is an example of how to perform a UNION query in WikiPathways.

Bioclipse
The below code works in both the JavaScript and the Groovy console:
rdf.sparqlRemote( "https://sparql.wikipathways.org/sparql", "SELECT DISTINCT ?p WHERE { ?s ?p ?o }" )
SPARQL from the command line
For quick and easy querying, we recommend to use curl (Linux and OS X)
curl -F "query=SELECT * WHERE {?s ?p ?o} LIMIT 10" https://sparql.wikipathways.org/sparql
