RHEA - Reaction status
Reactions in Rhea are assigned a status:
- No status (NO)
- The initial state of a reaction, tipically from parsing.
- Preliminary (PM)
- For unclear reactions missing participants. Note that
these will be publicly visible, as they are needed in some
pathways resources.
- Pending (PE)
- The reaction is awaiting some external event (ChEBI entity check,
for example).
- Approved (OK)
- The reaction has been validated,
which means it can be made public.
- Obsolete (OB)
- The reaction - once valid and used - has been replaced by
other.
- Rejected (RE)
- The reaction never got the accepted status, but was shown to
not be applicable.
Only approved, obsolete and preliminary
reactions should be publicly visible. Though it is possible
to add, modify and remove participants in any reaction, this is
strongly discouraged for the two aforementioned statuses.
Please refer also to the
javadocs
for updated documentation on status.
Status propagation
Some statuses propagate from one reaction to other reactions in the
same family:
- OK: propagates from non-directional reactions
(UN, BI) to every other reaction in the family.
- OB: propagates from directional reactions
(LR, RL) to non-directional ones.
