- Description
- The BioCyc database collection is a set of more than 7,600 Pathway/Genome Databases (PGDBs) describing many sequenced genomes. PGDBs describe the entire genome of an organism, as well as its biochemical pathways and (when curated) its regulatory network. BioCyc supports activities in drug discovery, agriculture, and biotechnology by enhancing the understanding of biological systems. The BioCyc website provides a suite of software tools for database searching and visualization, for omics data analysis, and for comparative genomics and comparative pathway questions. BioCyc databases are curated largely from published literature. (Updates vary)
