Paxtools provides a complete domain object model (DOM) in Java that enables users manipulating and evaluating BioPAX. It also provides state-of-the-art persistence services based on Java Persistence API. Finally Paxtools implement a fail-fast validation framework, mitigating the cost of potential pitfalls for the developers. Paxtools was designed to be modular, lightweight and platform independent to be easily embedded into applications.
