The goal of this database is to use images created directly by biomedical scientists who are specialists in a particular biological system. It is specifically designed to NOT use average, idealized or redrawn pathways. It does NOT use pathways defined by computer algorithm or information search approaches. Information on biological pathways in higher eukaryotes generally resides in the images and text of review papers. Much of this information is not easily accessible by current medical reference search engines.
All images are attributable to the original authors.
Suggestions on review papers that contain images of biological pathways are greatly appreciated. Suggestions of images do not have to be your personal work, just pathways or macromolecular structures that you find interesting. We will get permission from the publisher. If you would like, your name will be included in an image contributors and documentation list, with or without contact information. Please send scientific comments on biological pathways.
