metacyc

is a Data Source.

It is part of the BER collection.

MetaCyc is a curated database of experimentally elucidated metabolic pathways from all domains of life. MetaCyc contains pathways involved in both primary and secondary metabolism, as well as associated metabolites, reactions, enzymes, and genes. The goal of MetaCyc is to catalog the universe of metabolism by storing a representative sample of each experimentally elucidated pathway.

MetaCyc

MetaCyc is a curated reference database of experimentally elucidated metabolic pathways drawn from all domains of life. It organizes pathways together with the associated reactions, metabolites, enzymes, and genes, with the explicit goal of capturing a representative sample of known metabolism.

In KG-Registry, the owned MetaCyc products are the live portal and the BioCyc web services entry point. The rhea SSSOM and spoke graph entries remain attached as propagated downstream products because they reuse MetaCyc content in broader cross-resource integration workflows.
