The KEGG Browser

KEGG is the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes. You can search or browse through KEGG metabolic and regulatory pathways to retrieve information about enzymes, pathways, and proteins related to JGI-predicted genes.

KEGG divides metabolism into eleven main pathways, each of which is further divided into reference pathways. Similarly, KEGG divides regulation of genetic information into four main pathways, which are also further divided into reference pathways.

With the KEGG browser you can:

Search KEGG

Browse through KEGG pathways

View enzymes related to a pathway

View predicted genes related to a pathway

View maps of reference pathways

Select Model Set(s)

With the KEGG browser you can analyze single or multiple gene model sets by selecting one or more from the menu (see below).

To search an individual gene model set in KEGG, click to select an item in the Select Model Set(s) to View menu and click the apply button. The page will refresh to display your selection.

Or, to search multiple gene model sets, hold down Ctrl key (on the PC) or Cmd key (on the Mac) and click the model sets you wish to view (see below), then click the apply button. The page will refresh to display your selection.
