| Entry | The KEGG NETWORK database is a collection of network elements identified by N numbers ('N' followed by five-digit numbers) and network variation maps identified by nt numbers ('nt' followed by five-digit numbers). Network elements represent segments of metabolic, signaling and other molecular interaction/reaction networks, while network variation maps are aligned sets of network elements showing how perturbed networks are associated with diseases and drugs. |
|---|---|
| Name | Network name. |
| Definition | The definition of the network element consisting of human gene names. The expanded form represents precise definition consisting of human gene IDs, variant IDs and other KEGG identifiers. |
| Class | The classification of network elements according to the BRITE hierarchy br08907. |
| Type | The type of network elements: reference, variant, virus or drug. |
| Pathway | Reference pathway map or disease pathway map containing the network element. |
| Disease | Human diseases that are associeted with the network element. |
| Gene | List of human genes in the expanded definition. |
| Variant | List of human gene variants in the expanded definition. |
| Perturbant | List of viral genes, drugs and other perturbants in the expanded definition. |
| Metabolite | List of metabolites in the expanded definition. |
| Reference | Original references used for defining the network element. |
| LinkDB | 'All DBs' button in this field retrieves all available links to related database entries in the LinkDB system. At GenomeNet this field does not appear; instead a list of actual links is displayed on the right. |
