KEGG DISEASE Database

disease entry

(Example) H00004

KEGG DISEASE is a collection of simple entries for diseases. Each entry is identified by the H number, and contains a list of diseases genes and other lists of molecules such as environmental factors, markers, drugs, etc. These lists are intended for integrating various KEGG databases including PATHWAY, GENES, DRUG, and COMPOUND in order to understand molecular mechanisms of diseases.

Disease Classification

The KEGG BRITE database contains two disease classifications based on genomic and genetic perspectives.

Disease Pathway

The KEGG PATHWAY database contains pathway maps for certain types of diseases in its "Human diseases" category. Diseases genes are marked red in these pathway maps.
