Some of the diagrams used in the reading, published here for you to work alongside as you go through your own data.

Selecting a title opens the PDF. Items marked “on request” are not posted here for now; I send them to people who get in touch. The terminology list is in preparation.

These diagrams contain no individual analysis results. They are something to read alongside.

How to read the diagrams

Shape and colour

Blue outlined ellipse
Gene, enzyme, transporter or receptor
Plain black text
Metabolite
Green text
Cofactor or substrate
Red text
Harmful metabolite
Purple text
A factor acting to suppress that reaction
Orange text
A factor acting to promote that reaction

Line and direction

Solid arrow
The direction the reaction runs
T-bar, crossbar at the target
Suppresses the target
T-bar, crossbar at the label
Promotes the target

The T-bar is one shape; which side the crossbar sits on is what changes the direction. Suppressing factors are written in purple and promoting factors in orange, so the colour of the text tells you the same thing.

What purple and orange indicate is not a property of the term itself but its direction with respect to that reaction. The same term can appear in the opposite colour elsewhere.
