BiGG Get Reaction

Get detailed reaction information including stoichiometry, metabolites, gene-reaction rules, and database links. Query from specific model or universal database. Returns reaction equation, participating metabolites with coefficients, GPR (gene-protein-reaction) associations, bounds, and cross-references (KEGG, MetaCyc, BRENDA). Use for: understanding reaction mechanisms, gene associations, flux constraints, pathway analysis. Essential for metabolic modeling.
