BVBRC Search Pathways

Search for metabolic pathways in pathogen genomes from BV-BRC. Returns KEGG pathway assignments with EC numbers, enzyme descriptions, and genome associations. Useful for understanding pathogen metabolism and identifying potential drug targets. Example: search for pathways in M. tuberculosis (taxon_id 1773).
