KEGGscape

DOI Build Status

KEGGscape is a Cytoscape App for importing KGML(KEGG pathway XML).

KEGGscape is formerly known as KGMLReader

If you use KEGGscape in your research, please cite:

Quick Start

  1. Install KEGGscape with Cytoscape app manager.
  2. Get a kgml file. For example, to get the kgml of E.coli TCA cycle pathway (eco00020), open https://www.genome.jp/kegg-bin/show_pathway?eco00020 with web browser and click the Download KGML link
  3. Click the "Import Network from File System" icon in Cytoscape, select the eco00020.xml file, and click the open button.

That's all. Now you should see

Introduction

Cytoscape is a de-facto standard bioinformatics software platform for integrating, analyzing, and visualizing biological network data. KEGGscape is a Cytoscape App to import KEGG Pathway data to Cytoscape. KEGGscape users can use powerful Cytoscape core features to visualize additional (experimental) data sets on top of KEGG pathways.

About KEGG

KEGG Pathway database is one of the most comprehensive databases of human-curated biological pathways. KGML (KEGG Markup Language) is the file format to represent KEGG Pathway data files in XML. KEGGscape uses those KGML files as its source of pathway data.
