D.; Sander, C.; Bader, G. D.Biological Pathway Exchange (BioPAX) is a standard language to represent biological pathways at the molecular and cellular level and to facilitate the exchange of pathway data. The rapid growth of the volume of pathway data has spurred the development of databases and computational tools to aid interpretation; however, use of these data is hampered by the current fragmentation of pathway information across many databases with incompatible formats. BioPAX, which was created through a community process, solves this problem by making pathway data substantially easier to collect, index, interpret and share. BioPAX can represent metabolic and signaling pathways, molecular and genetic interactions and gene regulation networks. Using BioPAX, millions of interactions, organized into thousands of pathways, from many organisms are available from a growing number of databases. This large amount of pathway data in a computable form will support visualization, analysis and biological discovery. © 2010 Nature America, Inc.

E.; Bergmann, F. T.; Luna, A.; Demir, E.; Sorokin, A.; Dogrusoz, U.; Matsuoka, Y.; Funahashi, A.; Aladjem, M. I.; Mi, H.; Moodie, S. L.; Kitano, H.; Le novère, N.; Schreiber, F.Motivation: LibSBGN is a software library for reading, writing and manipulating Systems Biology Graphical Notation (SBGN) maps stored using the recently developed SBGN-ML file format. The library (available in C++ and Java) makes it easy for developers to add SBGN support to their tools, whereas the file format facilitates the exchange of maps between compatible software applications. The library also supports validation of maps, which simplifies the task of ensuring compliance with the detailed SBGN specifications. With this effort we hope to increase the adoption of SBGN in bioinformatics tools, ultimately enabling more researchers to visualize biological knowledge in a precise and unambiguous manner. © The Author(s) 2012.

I.; Wimalaratne, S. M.; Bergman, F. T.; Gauges, R.; Ghazal, P.; Kawaji, H.; Li, L.; Matsuoka, Y.; Villéger, A.; Boyd, S. E.; Calzone, L.; Courtot, M.; Doğrusöz, Uğur; Freeman, T. C.; Funahashi, A.; Ghosh, S.; Jouraku, A.; Kim, S.; Kolpakov, F.; Luna, A.; Sahle, S.; Schmidt, E.; Watterson, S.; Wu, G.; Goryanin, I.; Kell, D. B.; Sander, C.; Sauro, H.; Snoep, J. L.; Kohn, K.; Kitano, H.Circuit diagrams and Unified Modeling Language diagrams are just two examples of standard visual languages that help accelerate work by promoting regularity, removing ambiguity and enabling software tool support for communication of complex information. Ironically, despite having one of the highest ratios of graphical to textual information, biology still lacks standard graphical notations. The recent deluge of biological knowledge makes addressing this deficit a pressing concern. Toward this goal, we present the Systems Biology Graphical Notation (SBGN), a visual language developed by a community of biochemists, modelers and computer scientists. SBGN consists of three complementary languages: process diagram, entity relationship diagram and activity flow diagram. Together they enable scientists to represent networks of biochemical interactions in a standard, unambiguous way. We believe that SBGN will foster efficient and accurate representation, visualization, storage, exchange and reuse of information on all kinds of biological knowledge, from gene regulation, to metabolism, to cellular signaling. © 2009 Nature America, Inc.
