PathwayMatcher is a standalone command line tool to match human biomedical data to pathways. Its advanced mapping functions allow matching multiple types of omics data to the Reactome database: lists of genetic variants, gene or protein identifiers, lists of peptides including post-translational modifications, and proteoforms. For example, if a protein is provided with a phosphorylation at a given site, it is possible to match only those pathways involving the protein in the given phosphorylation state. PathayMatcher then exports the reactions and pathways matched, standard overrepresentation analysis, and biological networks.

The output of PathwayMatcher is composed of three files, the Reaction and Pathway mapping, the statistical analysis of the relevant pathways, and biological networks constructed based on the input.
See our Wiki for more information.
Networks files constructed using all the entities in PathwayMatcher are available here. protein* and proteoform* files correspond to the networks obtained using protein and proteoform matching, respectively.
