Biological Pathway Taxonomy

Other names: BPT

Biological Pathway Taxonomy (BPT) - hierarchical taxonomy of cellular and molecular mechanisms, metabolic reactions, and diseases that can be shown as signaling pathways. BPT was created manually based on the Elsevier Pathway Collection available for public usage.  There are 3 types of entities in BPT – pathway, group, and folder of pathways and groups.  Group is the list of genes and proteins associated with biological function and diseases.  Pathway is an interactive model of molecular interactions in human and mammalian cells described in the literature. Each model was reconstructed based on facts published in peer-reviewed journals, with manually quality control.  BPT pathway entity includes several properties such as link to the model in Pathway Studio software which allows reading supported sentences from published articles and additional information about members. A list of members for each model can be provided by request. Property “network” describes maps without logical causal relationships between members to distinguish them from actual models of molecular mechanisms (“signaling”).  The index folder contains all pathways and groups sorted alphabetically.
