KEGG Get Enzyme

Retrieve a KEGG ENZYME entry by EC number. Returns all NAMEs (accepted name plus synonyms), the CLASS hierarchy (the 3-level EC enzyme tree, e.g. Transferases -> Transferring phosphorus-containing groups -> Phosphotransferases with an alcohol group as acceptor), the SYSNAME (systematic name), the catalyzed REACTION, SUBSTRATEs and PRODUCTs, and the gene ORTHOLOGY (KO) entries. Use for enzyme annotation, EC-to-reaction mapping, and pathway gene-function lookup. Example: 2.7.1.1 -> NAME 'hexokina…

Overview

Retrieve a KEGG ENZYME entry by EC number. Returns all NAMEs (accepted name plus synonyms), the CLASS hierarchy (the 3-level EC enzyme tree, e.g. Transferases -> Transferring phosphorus-containing groups -> Phosphotransferases with an alcohol group as acceptor), the SYSNAME (systematic name), the catalyzed REACTION, SUBSTRATEs and PRODUCTs, and the gene ORTHOLOGY (KO) entries. Use for enzyme annotation, EC-to-reaction mapping, and pathway gene-function lookup. Example: 2.7.1.1 -> NAME 'hexokinase' (+6 synonyms), CLASS 'Transferases; Transferring phosphorus-containing groups; Phosphotransferases with an alcohol group as acceptor', SYSNAME 'ATP:D-hexose 6-phosphotransferase'.
