Problem with finding shortest path
  • Jeff April 2011
    Hi!

    I am using the "Find all shortest path between selected nodes" procedure in BuildPathwayWizard on the networks imported from an SBML file.
    By some reason the procedure returns 0 shortest paths, between chosen nodes, although obviously there are many of them, known from literature.
    So my question is does your procedure use a database search or it searches only opened SBML file.
    Also does it take into account directions of edges/reactions, because this is important in SBML file.

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Hi Jeff,

    yes the procedure does take into account edge direction and searches the database for known interactions between your genes/proteins.

    Can you send us your SBML file so we could test this problem, since the "Find shortest paths" works fine normally on the SBML files we have.

    Thanks.
