Step 1: Genes / Nucleotide Sequences Genome sequencing Unigene builds ESTs Step 2: Annotate Predicted Proteins Annotation source: PMN pipeline JGI or other sequencing consortium Small group of dedicated scientists, etc. Annotation tasks: Give enzymes a name Add GO molecular function terms Assign to a MetaCyc or EC reaction Use Pathologic and MetaCyc or PlantCyc to create new pathway database Remove non-enzymatic proteins before prediction After first round of prediction, review unassigned enzymes Repredict Validate new database Building your own metabolic database
Validating your own metabolic database • PathoLogic errs on the side of over-prediction • Curators / Scientists validate pathways . . .
Examine predicted pathways • Search for evidence in published papers, books, etc. • Is the pathway described in the literature for my species? • Are the crucial metabolites described in in the literature for my species? • Are there unique reactions associated with the pathway that have assigned genes? • Is there evidence that this is a universal plant pathway? • Is it on the PMN “green list?” • Is there evidence that this pathway is NEVER found in plants? • Only relevant when prediction is made using MetaCyc • Is it on the PMN “black list?”
Make necessary changes • Remove pathways not found in My species • glycogen biosynthesis • C4 photosynthesis • caffeine biosynthesis • Edit pathways operating via a different route • Phenylalanine biosynthesis in bacteria vs. My species
Make necessary changes • Edit pathways operating via a different route AraCyc Pathway: phenylalanine biosynthesis
Increase the data content • Addpathways from My species not present in the reference database • Secondary metabolites • Add additional compounds, reactions, and enzymes from My species that cannot be put in a known pathway • Write new summaries or revise imported summaries for pathways
Provide evidence codes • Evidence codes are used for: • Pathways • Enzyme activities • General types of support • EV-EXP -> experimental • EV-COMP -> computational • EV-IC -> inferred by a curator • EV-AS -> author statement • Additional information about evidence can be captured: • EV-EXP-IDA-PURIFIED-PROTEIN • Inferred from direct assay • EV-EXP-IMP-REACTION-BLOCKED • Inferred from mutant phenotype • EV-COMP-AINF • Inferred by computation automatically without human oversight
Provide evidence codes • Enzyme activity assays • Radiotracer experiments
We’d love to have you as part of ourPlant Metabolic Network of experts and friends! • Add your database to the PMN • The PMN can host it as a separate individual species or multi-species database • Enzymes from your validated pathways can be incorporated into PlatCyc pathways • Newly curated pathways from your species can be added to PlantCyc • Pathways • Enzyme activities • . . . but you don’t have to wait to make a whole new database!
Please help us to improve the PMN • Review existing pathways • Volunteer to go over a set of pathways in your area of expertise • E-mail us any time you see a problem • Use our feedback form curator@plantcyc.org
Please give us advice and information • Provide new data • Submit any information concerning: • Pathways • Enzymes • Reactions • Compounds
We are here to help: www.plantcyc.org • Please use our data • Please use our tools • Please help us to improve our databases! • Please contact us if we can be of any help! • Make an appointment to meet with me during my visit • (Puedo tratar de hablar en español) curator@plantcyc.org www.plantcyc.org
