<p class="MsoNormal">We are pleased to announce that the following SIB course on:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><b><span style="color:red">Mining enzyme data in UniProtKB using Rhea<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">which will be streamed on 24 February 2022 (lecture) and 3 March 2022 (practicals) is now open for applications.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
<a href="https://www.rhea-db.org/">Rhea</a> is an expert-curated knowledgebase of chemical and transport reactions of biological interest and the standard for enzyme and transporter annotation in
<a href="https://www.uniprot.org/">UniProtKB</a>. Rhea uses the chemical dictionary
<a href="https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/">ChEBI</a> (Chemical Entities of Biological Interest) to describe reaction participants. The goal of this course and the practical exercises is to provide basic theoretical and practical knowledge that will enable participants
to mine enzyme data in UniProtKB using chemical structure data and chemical classifications from Rhea and ChEBI.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This course is addressed to biologists, bioinformaticians, cheminformaticians, programmers and data scientists working with enzyme and small molecule data, including those working with metabolomics data and metabolic networks.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Further detailed information, prerequisites and application form are available
<a href="https://www.sib.swiss/training/course/20220224_RHEAL">here</a> (lecture) and
