What it touches on the way
A finding says benzoic acid moved an endpoint. This is the biology in between: the proteins and reactions it runs through to get there. It is where to look for the two things a list of findings cannot answer — why a result might happen, and what else acts on the same machinery.
10 of these are proteins with a page of their own, and that is the door: a protein page says what else it carries, which is how one compound leads to the next.
Mechanistic reach
10 entities
10 entities reached, most connected first. Hub metabolites are excluded, so this is not a claim that the compound touches everything.

What the reference databases state
The section above shows paths a projection assembled. This is the reference layer itself, one step from benzoic acid: what the cleared databases state it reacts with, is carried by, is converted to and takes part in, whether or not a projection has walked it yet.
