_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     agPATH2PROBE is an R object that provides mappings between KEGG
     identifiers and manufacturer identifiers.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     Each KEGG identifier is mapped to a named vector of manufacturer
     identifiers. The name represents the KEGG identifier and the
     vector contains all manufacturer identifiers that are found in
     that particular pathway. An 'NA' is reported for any KEGG
     identifier that cannot be mapped to any manufacturer identifiers.

     Pathway name for a given pathway identifier can be obtained using
     the KEGG data package that can either be built using AnnBuilder or
     downloaded from Bioconductor <URL: http://www.bioconductor.org>.

     Graphic presentations of pathways are searchable at <URL:
     http://www.genome.ad.jp/kegg/pathway.html> using pathway
     identifiers as keys.

     Mappings were based on data provided by: KEGG GENOME (
     ftp://ftp.genome.jp/pub/kegg/genomes ) on 2007-Aug24
