search
Find pathways, reactions, and molecules in Reactome using free-text search on names, synonyms, identifiers, and cross-references. Refine results by species or type.
Instructions
Free-text search across the Reactome knowledgebase (Solr-backed).
Matches pathways, reactions, physical entities, and reference molecules by
name, synonym, identifier, and cross-reference.
Args:
query: Search text (e.g. "TP53", "glycolysis", "apoptosis").
species: Optional species filter, e.g. "Homo sapiens".
types: Optional comma-separated type filter, e.g. "Pathway,Reaction"
or "Protein".
rows: Max entries to return per type group (1-100).
start: Zero-based offset into the result set for pagination.
cluster: Group hits by type (recommended; keeps the response compact).
Returns:
Dict with `entries` (flattened `{stId, name, type, exactType, species,
referenceIdentifier, compartmentNames, databaseName, ...}` with HTML
highlight markup stripped), `entriesCount` (total matches), and
`resultTypes` (per-type match counts).
