===== Downloading Pathways and Interaction Networks =====

In Step 3, you can simply double-click on a pathway of interest, or click on the Interaction Networks tab.

The Interaction Networks tab enables you to filter interactions by data source and/or interaction type. For example, you can choose to restrict your network to direct physical interactions from HPRD and MINT only:
