getOrgMetabolicData: Get organism metabolic data from KEGG database

Description

This function helps us to obtain the specific-organism pathway map, prasing this maps to get metabolic data contains reaction, substrate and product.

Usage

getOrgMetabolicData(org)

Arguments

org,
characters, the KEGG organism code, e.g. "buc".

Value

  • a three length df, consists of enzyme reaction names, substrates and products

Details

Function getOrgMetabolicData helps us to download metabolic data of a given organism from KEGG database with REST-style KEGG API. Enzyme reactions take place in this organism (org) and its metabolites (substrates and products), that will be used for organism-specific genome scale metabolic network reconstruction, can be obtained with this function.
