⚠️ Upcoming changes:
As of Reactome V94, the following files will no longer be available: “Protégé 2.0 ontology files”, and “Events in the BioPAX level 2 format”. If you require these files for your work, please let our team know via [email protected].

Reactome @reactome.org · Jun 24

⚠️ Reminder:
As of Reactome V93, our Docker images are no longer available on DockerHub and have been migrated to AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR). Users should pull images from AWS ECR moving forward.
