Welcome to the Lipids Pathways Portal on WikiPathways

This portal is set up to coordinate the development of lipid pathways and get together the community interested in interactive lipid pathways.
Lipids serve several important biological purposes, such as providing membrane structure, and signalling.
Thanks to the LIPID MAPS team for sharing their pathway knowledge through WikiPathways!
For more details on the LipidMaps pathways, please read the following paper: "A Mouse Macrophage Lipidome" Edward A. Dennis et.al. J Biol Chem. 2010 Dec 17; 285(51): 39976-39985.[1]
Read more about the Scalable Curation grant we received from Elixir together with the LIPID MAPS team, or on the EpiLipidNet Cost Action.
This portal is also featured in the 2021 NAR Database Issue on WikiPathways and Metabolomics 2021 Review Article on Interpreting the lipidome.
Pathways
Existing pathways
Pathways which have been approved for data analysis can be found on the Featured pathway page. We have split these up in 7 groups (Sphingolipids, Eicosanoids, Glycerolipids and Glycerophospholipids, Phosphatidylglycerides, Fatty Acids, Cholesterol, General Pathways related to Lipids).
Extend existing (approved) pathways with new literature
- More proteins, localisation, details on regulation of (endocytic) membrane traffic [2] and [3] by phosphoinositide 3-kinases, and activity and tumor suppression thereof for WP4971.
Update existing (not yet approved) pathways
| Sphingolipid Metabolism (integrated pathway) (mouse) |
| Elongation of (very) long chain fatty acids (mouse) |
Create new pathways
- Public resources for pathway information: LIPID MAPS and SwissLipids.

How to add a pathway to the portal
The list of Featured Pathways is not static and can be updated at any time. If you know of a pathway that should be added, please contact the administrator.
