BiGG is a knowledgebase of Biochemically, Genetically and Genomically structured genome-scale metabolic network reconstructions. It more published genome-scale metabolic networks into a single database with a set of stardized identifiers called BiGG IDs. Genes in the BiGG models are mapped to NCBI genome annotations, and metabolites are linked to many external databases (KEGG, PubChem, and many more). This collection references individual models.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in BiGG Model should match this regular expression:
^[a-z_A-Z0-9]+$

Example Local Unique Identifier

iECABU_c1320   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from BiGG Model should match this regular expression:
^bigg\.model:[a-z_A-Z0-9]+$

Mappings from records in Semantic Farm to external registries comprises the metaregistry. This resource has 3 mappings to external registries with 1 unique external prefixes.

A provider turns a local unique identifiers from a resource into a URI. Many providers are also resolvable as URLs (i.e., they can be used in a web browser).

The local unique identifier iECABU_c1320 is used to demonstrate the providers available for BiGG Model. Some providers may use a different example, which is displayed in the table below. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
