Abstract

The high potential of Bioinformatics research concerning quantitative and qualitative data acquisition such as data warehouses, spatial structure prediction and 3D microscopy conveys the vision of generating a computational virtual cell. This paper discusses an approach which allows the creation and exploration of an abstract compartmented cell environment, which can be used for (semi-)automatic, species- and organelle-specific mapping and the comparison of metabolic data.
