     KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) maintains pathway
     data for various organisms. Each pathway has a name, pathway id,
     and graphical presentation of the pathway. YEASTPATH2PROBE maps
     KEGG pathway ids to probe identifiers representing genes whose
     products participate in the interactions of the pathway

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     Pathway name for a given pathway id can be obtained using the KEGG
     data package that can either be built using AnnBuilder or
     downloaded from Bioconductor <URL: http://www.bioconductor.org>.

     Graphic presentations of pathways are searchable at
     url{http://www.genome.ad.jp/kegg/pathway.html} using pathway ids
     as keys.

     Mappings were based on data provided by:
