What it touches on the way
A finding says nitrite 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.
6 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
6 entities
6 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 nitrite: 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.
