aMAZE

The aMAZE Workbench is a system for representing and analyzing molecular interactions and cellular processes. It implements a datamodel, which embodies general rules for associating individual biological entities and interactions into large complex networks of cellular processes. It can deal with a large variety of cellular processes including metabolic pathways, protein-protein interactions, gene regulation, sub-cellular localisation, transport, and signal transduction. The major aims of this workbench are to provide a general open framework for storing information from different levels of cellular organisation, which would enable a wide range of analyses, including modeling and simulations. Furthermore they offer flexible queries and visualization of this information, custom-building of tools for advanced programmatic analyses and for mapping information into modeling and simulation software.
