MetaCrop -- a detailed database of crop plant metabolism
What you can do:
A database that summarizes diverse information about metabolic pathways in crop plants and allows automatic export of information for the creation of detailed metabolic models.
Highlights:
- MetaCrop is a manually curated repository of high quality information concerning the metabolism of crop plants, including pathway diagrams, reactions, locations, transport processes, reaction kinetics, taxonomy and literature.
- MetaCrop provides detailed information on six major crop plants with high agronomical importance and initial information about several other plants.
- The web interface supports an easy exploration of the information from overview pathways to single reactions and therefore helps users to understand the metabolism of crop plants.
- It also allows model creation and automatic data export for detailed models of metabolic pathways therefore supporting systems biology approaches.
