Hi guys,

I got a metagenome sample and identified several species/families... in there. Now I'm thinking of automatically gathering pathways (just the names though) for each of those species. Preferably this should be done in R. Any Ideas of a Database / API where to download Pathway-Names given the species name?

Thanks,  
Phil

to clarify, basically what I need is typing 'Gardnerella Vaginalis' into some KEGG (or any other) API and I retrieve the list of pathways, here just a snapshot

    gvg00010             Glycolysis / Gluconeogenesis - Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14019 
    gvg00030             Pentose phosphate pathway - Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14019 
    gvg00040             Pentose and glucuronate interconversions - Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14019 
    gvg00051             Fructose and mannose metabolism - Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14019 
    gvg00052             Galactose metabolism - Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14019 
    gvg00061             Fatty acid biosynthesis - Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14019 
    gvg00071             Fatty acid degradation - Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14019 
    gvg00072             Synthesis and degradation of ketone bodies - Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14019 
    gvg00121             Secondary bile acid biosynthesis - Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14019
