Which KEGG reference organism should be used for pathway analysis of metabolites identified from in vitro fermentation of a plant substrate?
Based on your in vitro fermentation systems and analysis objectives, two possible directions:
-
Hypothsis testing mode - if you do expect some pathways / enzymes present, choose an organism that contains the reactions => Pathway Analysis module, choose the organims
-
Discovery mode - if you have no idea, you can just map the metabolites to the KEGG global network => Network Analysis module, choose the “KEGG Global Metabolic Network” see below
