7. Reactome is - reductionist. All of biology can be represented as events that convert input physical entities into output physical entities. - a generic parts list. Tissue and state specificity of events are not captured. - qualitative. Kinetic parameters and data are not captured. - species-centric. Experiments may use reagents from diverse sources, but most biological processes take place in single species, and the focus here will be on rice biological processes. - manually curated. Events are annotated by expert curators, and linked to published data. - open source. All data and software are freely downloadable and reusable.

10. Why ‘Reactome’? Reactions are the ‘units’ of a pathway (network) Capture events and changes of state found in biology TRANSPORT CLASSIC BIOCHEMICAL BINDING DISSOCIATION DEGRADATION PHOSPHORYLATION DEPHOSPHORYLATION

11. Reactome Aims Represent detailed biological pathways composed of ‘biological events’ Describe every step (interaction or other event) Provide evidence from literature for every step Make available free for browsing and download/re-use Store in a computationally accessible way (support multiple download standards/formats) Link to external resources and use standard IDs, nomenclature wherever possible
