How to extract gene names for a metabolic pathway from KEGG?
I need the get the list of gene names involved in glycolysis (to put an example). Not manually, I need to do this in a script. Ideally with Python. I think KEGG is the proper database to do this, but any other (free) suggestion would do.
How can I do it?

You can use KEGG REST API for extracting gene names from the pathway. Python request library can be used to make the REST calls to KEGG REST API and query information. Please follow this tutorial if you are a newbie to the Python programming and REST web services.
