| Abstract: | Background Metabolic reconstruction of microbial, plant and animal genomes is a necessary step toward understanding the evolutionary
origins of metabolism and species-specific adaptive traits. The aims of this study were to reconstruct conserved metabolic
pathways in the cattle genome and to identify metabolic pathways with missing genes and proteins. The MetaCyc database and
PathwayTools software suite were chosen for this work because they are widely used and easy to implement. |
