Claim Text:
1. A metabolic pathway data management system in a distributed communication network comprising: at least one application server running a metabolic pathway data management server application; at least one client workstation running a metabolic pathway data management client application in communication with the at least one application server via the distributed communication network; and at least one database for storing data in communication with the at least one application server via the distributed communication network, wherein said metabolic pathway data management client application provides a graphical user interface allowing for the input of information about metabolites of a metabolic pathway of interest, including connectors between the metabolites, the graphical user interface providing at least one pathway diagram template containing information about an arrangement of metabolites and allowing for a mapping of the metabolites of the metabolic pathway of interest onto the pathway diagram template by arranging all the metabolites of the metabolic pathway of interest that are identical to the metabolites of the pathway diagram template at a position of the respective metabolite of the pathway diagram template, displaying the connectors between the metabolites of the metabolic pathway of interest, and automatically re-arranging the metabolites of the metabolic pathway of interest.
