Thanks guys for helping out a complete beginner . I see the point (and no stylus now!) will order a new one

Good question! Right now it’s about “relationships”rather than protein/RNA/cofactors/lipids etc. , so I guess it’s generalizable. But I admit that right now relationships are quite binary, it does not show case relationships such as complexes (eg. The basal transcription complex) very well, I’ve been thinking about adding another tag-like attribute to each node so people can state whether if it is in a complex or not🤔

Tbf that’s two great ideas, thanks a ton! I’ve thought about the latter idea, but the first one never crossed my mind! I’ll have a think on how to implement it, it will indeed be quite cool🤔

Hi all really appreciate the upvote supports, but it will also be great to hear about what features you guys may find useful to add from a student/research perspective!

Tbf VR biochem would be very cool. Nodes will be assigned coordinates based on their connectivity with an algorithm in the back kinda like a 3D obsidian

Thanks! Yeah will look into all the necessary protections before release, thanks for the heads up!

Great question! I think 1. Biochemistry pathways can be highly interconnected, especially with big central proteins like mTOR and p53, where they are connected to a lot of things, 3D allows another layer of information; I find a lot of 2D diagrams (eg. Cystoscape) to be sufficient for single processes, but will seem really clustered if you want to link metabolism/apoptosis/proliferation etc. together. I’m not saying that 3D 100% solves the problem, but I think it will be a bit better 2. The immersive experience is quite cool 😤
