  <name>Methanol</name>
  <description>Methanol is the simplest alcohol, and is a light, volatile, colourless, flammable, poisonous liquid with a distinctive odor that is somewhat milder and sweeter than ethanol. It is produced naturally in the anaerobic metabolism of many varieties of bacteria, and is ubiquitous in the environment. As a result, there is a small fraction of methanol vapor in the atmosphere.

      <name>Starch and sucrose metabolism</name>
      <description>The metabolism of starch and sucrose begins with D-fructose interacting with a D-glucose in a reversible reaction through a maltodextrin glucosidase resulting in a water molecule and a sucrose. D-fructose is phosphorylated through an ATP driven fructokinase resulting in the release of an ADP, a hydrogen ion and a Beta-D-fructofuranose 6-phosphate. This compound can also be introduced into the cytoplasm through either a mannose PTS permease or a hexose-6-phosphate:phosphate antiporter. 
The Beta-D-fructofuranose 6-phosphate is isomerized through a phosphoglucose isomerase resulting in a Beta-D-glucose 6-phosphate. This compound can also be incorporated by glucose PTS permease or a hexose-6-phosphate:phosphate antiporter. 
The beta-D-glucose 6 phosphate can also be produced by a D-glucose being phosphorylated by an ATP-driven glucokinase resulting in a ADP, a hydrogen ion and a Beta-D-glucose 6 phosphate. 

The beta-D-glucose can produce alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate  by two methods:
1.-Beta-D-glucose is isomerized into an alpha-D-Glucose 6-phosphate and then interacts in a reversible reaction through a phosphoglucomutase-1 resulting in a alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate.
2.-Beta-D-glucose interacts with a putative beta-phosphoglucomutase resulting in a Beta-D-glucose 1-phosphate.  Beta-D-glucose 1-phosphate can be incorporated into the cytoplasm through a 
glucose PTS permease. This compound is then isomerized into a Alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate
The beta-D-glucose can cycle back into a D-fructose by first interacting with D-fructose in a reversible reaction through a Polypeptide: predicted glucosyltransferase resulting in the release of a phosphate and a sucrose. The sucrose then interacts in a reversible reaction with a water molecule through a maltodextrin glucosidase resulting in a D-glucose and a D-fructose. 

Alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate can produce glycogen in by two different sets of reactions:
1.-Alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate interacts with a hydrogen ion and an ATP through a glucose-1-phosphate adenylyltransferase resulting in a pyrophosphate and an ADP-glucose. The ADP-glucose then interacts with an amylose through a glycogen synthase resulting in the release of an ADP and an Amylose. The amylose then interacts with 1,4-α-glucan branching enzyme resulting in glycogen
2.- Alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate interacts with amylose through a maltodextrin phosphorylase resulting in a phosphate and a glycogen.

Alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate can also interacts with UDP-galactose through a galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase resulting in a galactose 1-phosphate and a Uridine diphosphate glucose. The UDP-glucose then interacts with an alpha-D-glucose 6-phosphate through a trehalose-6-phosphate synthase resulting in a uridine 5'-diphosphate, a hydrogen ion and a Trehalose 6- phosphate. The latter compound can also be incorporated into the cytoplasm through a trehalose PTS permease. Trehalose interacts with a water molecule through a trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase resulting in the release of a phosphate and an alpha,alpha-trehalose.The alpha,alpha-trehalose can also be obtained from glycogen being metabolized through a glycogen debranching enzyme resulting in a the alpha, alpha-trehalose. This compound ca then be hydrated through a cytoplasmic trehalase resulting in the release of an alpha-D-glucose and a beta-d-glucose.

Glycogen is then metabolized by reacting with a phosphate through a glycogen phosphorylase resulting in a alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate and a dextrin. The dextrin is then hydrated through a glycogen phosphorylase-limit dextrin α-1,6-glucohydrolase resulting in the release of a debranched limit dextrin and a maltotetraose. This compound can also be incorporated into the cytoplasm through a 
maltose ABC transporter. The maltotetraose interacts with a phosphate through a maltodextrin phosphorylase releasing a alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate and a maltotriose. The maltotriose can also be incorporated through a maltose ABC transporter. The maltotriose can then interact with water through a maltodextrin glucosidase resulting in a D-glucose and a D-maltose. D-maltose can also be incorporated through a 
maltose ABC transporter 

The D-maltose can then interact with a maltotriose through a amylomaltase resulting in a maltotetraose and a D-glucose. The D-glucose is then phosphorylated through an ATP driven glucokinase resulting in a hydrogen ion, an ADP and a Beta-D-glucose 6-phosphate</description>

      <name>Biotin metabolism</name>
      <description>Biotin (vitamin H or vitamin B7) is the essential cofactor of biotin-dependent carboxylases, such as pyruvate carboxylase and acetyl-CoA carboxylase.In E. coli and many organisms, pimelate thioester is derived from malonyl-ACP. The pathway starts with a malonyl-[acp] interacting with S-adenosylmethionine through a biotin synthesis protein BioC resulting in a S-adenosylhomocysteine and a malonyl-[acp] methyl ester. The latter compound is then involved in the synthesis of a 3-ketoglutaryl-[acp] methyl ester through a 3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase. The compound 3-ketoglutaryl-[acp] methyl ester is reduced by a NADPH mediated  3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein]  reductase resulting in a 3R-hydroxyglutaryl-[acp] methyl ester. This compound is then  dehydrated through ad (3R)-hydroxymyristoyl-[acp] dehydratase producing a enoylglutaryl-[acp] methyl ester. This compound is then reduced through a NADPH mediated enoyl-acp-reductase [NADH] resulting in a glutaryl-[acp] methyl ester. This compound interacts with a malonyl-[acp] through a 3-oxoacyl-[acp] synthase 2 resulting in a 3-ketopimeloyl [acp] methyl ester. This compound is then reduced through a NADPH 3-oxoacyl [acp] reductase  producing a 3-hydroxypimeloyl-[acp] methyl ester and then dehydrated by (3R)-hydroxymyristoyl-[acp] dehydratase to produce a enoylpimeloyl-[acp] methyl ester. This compound is then reduced by a NADPH dependent enoyl-[acp]reductase resulting in a pimeloyl-[acp] methyl ester. This compound then reacts with water through a carboxylesterase resulting in a pimeloyl-[acp] and a methanol. The pimeloyl-acp reacts with L-alanine through a 8-amino-7-oxononanoate synthase resulting in 8-amino-7-oxononanoate which in turn reacts with S-adenosylmethionine through a 7,8 diaminonanoate transaminase resulting in a S-adenosyl-4-methylthio-2-oxobutanoate and 7,8 diaminononanoate. The latter compound is then dephosphorylated through a dethiobiotin synthetase resulting in a dethiobiotin. This compound interacts with a sulfurated[sulfur carrier), a hydrogen ion and a S-adenosylmethionine through a biotin synthase to produce Biotin and releasing l-methionine and a 5-deoxyadenosine.
Biotin is then metabolized by a bifunctional protein resulting in pyrophosphate and Biotinyl-5-AMP which in turn reacts with the same protein (bifunctional protein birA resulting ina biotin caroxyl carrying protein.This product then enters the fatty acid biosynthesis.
