Caenorhabditis elegans

This is the metabolic network of the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans. Nodes are metabolites (e.g., proteins), and edges are interactions between them. Since a metabolite can iteract with itself, the network contains loops. The interactions are undirected. There may be multiple interactions between any two metabolites.
