There are four chemicals listed in this terminology:

  1. Cytolysin is actually an interesting chemical role. The curation in HemeKG leaves much to be desired, since it basically only contains a single correlation statement whose curation needs to be revisited/redone
  2. Lability is a state of the entity and not the entity itself, so I'm not sure what to do about this one.
  3. From the description, this term is not even a chemical/role
  4. From the description, this term is also not even a chemical/role

@Fahumayun please find small molecule examples of cytolysins. I started reading https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytolysin, but I only found examples that were macromolecules (e.g., proteins from bacteria)

  1. Labile iron, I wasn't sure so I added "?" to the class name.
  2. Oxidation reactions, I am not sure whether to add "biological process" or "?".
  3. Nitrite oxidation is defined as an essential step in transformations of fixed nitrogen and surely it can't be a biological process.
