Figure 2

Fragment of the UML diagram for the SigPath ontology/database schema. The Figure shows how instances of certain classes are related and how the relationships among classes can be used to represent information. The link between Reaction and Chemical expresses the information that reactions transforms chemicals, and that chemical can be substrate or products of reactions. The classes and attribute marked in orange are specific to the SigPath ontology and have no equivalent in the EcoCyc ontology.
