- Abstract
Several genome-scale efforts are underway to reconstruct metabolic networks for a variety of organisms. As the resulting data accumulates, the need for analysis tools increases. A notable requirement is a pathway alignment finder that enables both the detection of conserved metabolic pathways among different species as well as divergent metabolic pathways within a species. When comparing two pathways, the tool should be powerful enough to take into account both the pathway topology as well as the nodes' labels (e.g. the enzymes they denote), and allow flexibility by matching similar--rather than identical--pathways.
