  1. Genes: Entrez Gene IDs, including genes encoding for a component of a protein complex as separate entities. EC numbers: only fully specified EC numbers. Metabolites: if two metabolites of one database both match the same metabolite in another database this is counted as one match. Reactions: reactions where not required to match on e-, H+ and/or H2O. Differences with the outcomes of the global comparison (Table 3) are indicated in percentages for each level of comparison.
