• Collaborative Metabolic Curation of an Emerging Model Marine Bacterium, Alteromonas macleodii ATCC 27126

    A community curation workshop by researchers and students resulted in a new manually-curated genome and metabolic pathway database in BioCyc for the model marine bacterium Alteromonas macleodii ATCC 27126. The curation of this bacterium from peer-review literature illustrates the current knowledge of the organism and highlights gaps in knowledge that serve as starting points for…

  • Revisiting the y-ome of Escherichia coli

    EcoCyc.org, the most comprehensive curated genome database for the model microorganism E. coli K-12, has implemented a new categorization schema that indicates the degree to which a gene has been characterized: well-characterized (54%), partially (26%) and uncharacterized (16%). This searchable category adds to the wealth of information and bioinformatics tools in EcoCyc aiding research decisions…

  • CyanoCyc Cyanobacterial Web Portal

    CyanoCyc is a web portal that integrates an exceptionally rich database collection of information about cyanobacterial genomes with an extensive suite of bioinformatics tools.

  • The EcoCyc Database (2023)

    The long-term goal of the project is to describe the complete molecular catalog of the E. coli cell, as well as the functions of each of its molecular parts, to facilitate a system-level understanding of E. coli.
