ADTF: BioPAX Biological Pathways Exchange

URL: http://www.biopax.org/
Date created: 2002-10

Description:
The goal of the BioPAX group is to develop a common exchange format for biological pathways data.

The BioPAX project began at the Fourth BioPathways Consortium Meeting, a satellite of the ISMB'02 Conference held in Edmonton, Canada in August 2002. There it was decided that the creation of a standard data exchanage format for pathway information was not only a good first step toward building an open source pathway information resource, but also that such an exchange format would be a desirable end in itself as it would facilitate sharing of pathways information between existing databases, both public and private.
