title: BioSilico: an integrated metabolic database system.
abstract: BioSilico is a web-based database system that facilitates the search and analysis of metabolic pathways. Heterogeneous metabolic databases including LIGAND, ENZYME, EcoCyc and MetaCyc are integrated in a systematic way, thereby allowing users to efficiently retrieve the relevant information on enzymes, biochemical compounds and reactions. In addition, it provides well-designed view pages for more detailed summary information. BioSilico is developed as an extensible system with a robust systematic architecture.
