Abstract
Enzymatic reactions form a hypergraph structure and their translation into a graph structure accompanies an information loss. This chapter introduces well-known topological transformations from metabolic reactions to a graph, and discusses their advantages and disadvantages. Also discussed is the legitimacy of defining cofactors or currency metabolites, and suitable application area of each representation.Mesh:
