The encyclopedia of Escherichia coli genes and metabolism (EcoCyc) is a
database that combines information about the genome and the intermediary
metabolism of E.coli. It describes 2034 genes, 306 enzymes encoded by these
genes, 580 metabolic reactions that occur in E.coli and the organization of
these reactions into 100 metabolic pathways. The EcoCyc graphical user
interface allows query and exploration of the EcoCyc database using
visualization tools such as genomic map browsers and automatic layouts of
metabolic pathways. EcoCyc spans the space from sequence to function to
allow investigation of an unusually broad range of questions. EcoCyc can be
thought of as both an electronic review article, because of its copious
references to the primary literature, and as an in silico model of E.coli
that can be probed and analyzed through computational means.
