- Warning: This page is still under construction, and the templates featured on it subject to change. If you are interested in taking part in this project, please add your name to the participants list below.
The Metabolic Pathways Wikiproject aims to, through the use of well designed templates, make the articles in Wikipedia relating to metabolism easily navigable. This includes all relevant enzyme and biological chemicals!
Parent wikiproject: Wikipedia:WikiProject Molecular and Cellular Biology
Articles of Interest
This WikiProject is interested in all metabolism related articles, from metabolism to individual compounds and enzymes such as Glucose-6-phosphate, Adolase and Hexokinase.
Relevant articles can be tagged with the templates provided below.
Pathway of the month: Glycolysis |
Method of Action
This wikiproject will target metabolic pathways one by one, with the intent of organising the parent article and creating an article for each compound and enzyme within the pathway. There is, of course, no reason why you can't work on any other pathways if you want!
To make the many relevant articles navigable the templates provided below should be widely used, effectively making diagrams containing links. See Glucose for an example of this in action. Templates should also be created to make link-containing diagrams of the overall pathway for relevent pages.
Information and References
All information used should be checked and referenced from an appropriate source. I recomend the KEGG pathway database at http://www.genome.jp/kegg/pathway.html. This is also easily refered to via the enzyme/compund/reaction code.
