Search Rhea for enzyme classes (EC)
You can search Rhea for EC number through the simple or advanced search.
See What is the relationship between Rhea and the IUBMB enzyme classification (EC numbers)? for details.
Rhea reactions are only linked to complete EC numbers but you can search for the 4 levels of enzyme classification by using the prefix 'ec:' in the simple search or by selecting the topic Enzyme classification [EC] in the advanced search.
Query examples:
| Query | Result |
|---|---|
| ec:* | to retrieve all the reactions linked to an EC number |
| ec:2 or ec:2.-.-.- | to retrieve all the reactions catalyzed by Transferases enzyme class (EC 2) |
| ec:2.1 or ec:2.1.-.- | to retrieve all the reactions catalyzed by Transferases Transferring one-carbon groups sub-class (EC 2.1) |
| ec:2.1.1 or ec:2.1.1.- | to retrieve all the reactions catalyzed by Methyltransferases sub-sub-class (EC 2.1.1) |
| ec:2.1.1.160 | to retrieve all the reactions catalyzed by Caffeine synthase (EC 2.1.1.160) |
Note that links to EC numbers are provided by default in the Reaction result page and that you can filter any search result by one of the seven main classes of the enzyme classification.
