MetExploreViz: web component for interactive metabolic network visualization

Abstract Summary MetExploreViz is an open source web component that can be easily embedded in any web site. It provides features dedicated to the visualization of metabolic networks and pathways and thus offers a flexible solution to analyse omics data in a biochemical context.
