MetaFetcheR: An R Package for Complete Mapping of Small-Compound Data

Small-compound databases contain a large amount of information for metabolites and metabolic pathways. However, the plethora of such databases and the redundancy of their information lead to major issues with analysis and standardization. A lack of preventive establishment of means of data access at...

description Small-compound databases contain a large amount of information for metabolites and metabolic pathways.
