Features

- Querying, downloading, and working with data and models from databases such as [BiGG](http://bigg.ucsd.edu/), [KEGG](https://www.kegg.jp/) or the [MetabolicAtlas](https://metabolicatlas.org/).
- Integrated with metabolic packages in the julia ecosystem such as [COBREXA.jl](https://github.com/LCSB-BioCore/COBREXA.jl), [SBMLToolkit.jl](https://docs.sciml.ai/SBMLToolkit/stable/),[SMBL.jl](https://github.com/LCSB-BioCore/SBML.jl),[Catalyst.jl](https://docs.sciml.ai//stable/) and [ReactionNetworkImporters.jl](https://docs.sciml.ai/ReactionNetworkImporters/stable/)

## Installation

To use this package, add it to you environment:

```julia
using Pkg
Pkg.add("https://github.com/damourChris/MetabolicQueries.jl")
using MetabolicQueries
```

or via the REPL

```julia
(@v1.8) pkg> add https://github.com/damourChris/MetabolicQueries.jl
julia> using MetabolicQueries
```

## Databases

### BiGG


BiGG-website
BiGG-DOI

BiGG Models is a knowledgebase of genome-scale metabolic network reconstructions. BiGG Models integrates more than 70 published genome-scale metabolic networks into a single database with a set of stardized identifiers called BiGG IDs. Genes in the BiGG models are mapped to NCBI genome annotations, and metabolites are linked to many external databases (KEGG, PubChem, and many more).

For details about updates to the BiGG Models website and database, see the [updates page](http://bigg.ucsd.edu/updates) and the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/SBRG/bigg_models/releases).

### KEGG


KEGG-website
KEGG-DOI



KEGG is a database resource for understanding high-level functions and utilities of the biological system, such as the cell, the organism and the ecosystem, from molecular-level information, especially large-scale molecular datasets generated by genome sequencing and other high-throughput experimental technologies.


### MetabolicAtlas


metabolic_atlas-website
metabolic_atlas-DOI


Metabolic Atlas is a web platform integrating open-source genome scale metabolic models (GEMs) for easy browsing and analysis. Their goal is to collect curated GEMs, and to bring these models closer to FAIR principles. The website provides visualisations and comparisons of the GEMs, and links to resources, algorithms, other databases, and more general software applications. Their vision is to create a one-stop-shop for everything metabolism related.
