BVBRC Search Subsystems

Search for functional subsystems (curated groups of functionally related proteins) in BV-BRC pathogen genomes. Returns subsystem classifications including superclass, class, subclass, and specific functional roles. Useful for understanding pathogen functional organization and comparing metabolic capabilities. Example: search for virulence-related subsystems in M. tuberculosis.
