It is possible to parse JSON files of Escher maps directly in MATLAB. This is similar to KGML files of KEGG pathway maps. This will provide standalone accessibility to Escher maps by storing them as image and corresponding JSON files. These images can be employed directly in COBRA toolbox to map numerical results of simulations on maps and save them for later use. However, saving a new JASON file from these COBRA models along with their simulation results would be possible by emulating the implementation used in Python.
