From WikiPathways
The backbone of WikiPathways is made up of databases. The gene, protein and metabolite databases supporting pathway objects provide connections to well defined and annotated biological entities. The databases of WikiPathways derive from the
BridgeDb system as Java-embedded
Derby databases. BridgeDb is an ID mapping framework for bioinformatics applications.
To the right, you'll find the current list of supported species at !WikiPathways. Below, you'll learn about the resources used to build the databases and the potential for additional species support.<p>
If you have a favorite species of interest for a pathway curation effort, let us know!
