A Wiki for Biological Pathways

In the “tradition” of Wikipedia and other wiki platforms, WikiPathways is intended to be an open, public space for content editing dedicated to biological pathways, facilitating the contribution and maintenance of pathway information from the scientific community.

HOW TO FIND A PATHWAY

There are many ways to find your pathways of interest. You can search by:

• Name of the pathway
• Name of a gene on the pathway
• Browse by species
• Browse by pathway categories

VIEWING PATHWAYS

Image

Once you are on a Pathway Page you can click on the image of the pathway to view the SVG representation. The pathway image is available for download in SVG and PNG formats.

Text

Each Pathway Page has a text description, itemized gene list, references and relevant links.

Data

Each pathway is also available for download as a GPML data file (GenMAPP Pathway Markup Language), an XML for annotated, curated pathway content. This format can be used with PathVisio. Pathways are also available as .mapp files for use in GenMAPP.

EDITING PATHWAYS

In addition to editing the text fields on a given Pathway Page, this wiki also support the ability to edit the pathway itself! Click on "EDIT" and a webstart version of PathVisio will open with the current pathway loaded. You can then add, edit or delete content from the pathway. When you save, updated version of the images, controlled text, and data files are generated and are immediately available.
