Template:Biochem reaction subunit

2 × Hydrogen peroxide

Catalase

2 H₂O

Oxygen

This template creates subunits of a biochemical reaction. For example, three instances of it were used to demonstrate the reaction of catalase.

The template is based on the <div> element, rather than tables, and this allows it to be more flexible in its display. For example, "2 × Hydrogen peroxide" is likely to wrap across multiple lines, but this doesn't force all the other headers to expand to match. Some of the formatting is dependent on the user's browser supporting the flexbox layout system; the vast majority do, but you will see slight differences in spacing on legacy browsers, although efforts have been made to provide a fallback.

Oxygen

The second example shows the same code, but constrained to 200 px wide; the content wraps, which is particularly useful for longer pathways and mobile devices.

Example code

 <div style="display: flex; flex-flow: row wrap; width:300px; max-width: 100%">
 {{Biochem_reaction_subunit|compound=Hydrogen peroxide|image=Hydrogen-peroxide-3D-balls.png|n=2}}
 {{Biochem_reaction_subunit|enzyme=Catalase|for_prod=2 H<sub>2</sub>O}}
 {{Biochem_reaction_subunit|compound=Oxygen|image=Oxygen molecule.png}}
 </div>

TemplateData for Biochem reaction subunit

This creates a subunit of a reaction: either chemical, or a reaction arrow with an enzyme and minor products or reactants. It is also possible to display custom content. It is designed to be placed inside a <div> tag with "display: flex; flex-flow: row wrap;", but it does work without flexbox.

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Enzyme name	`enzyme`	The name of the enzyme. This may contain wikicode, but if it does or is otherwise not an article name, link must be specified.	Content	suggested
Compound name	`compound`	The compound. This may contain wikicode, but if it does or is otherwise not an article name, link must be specified.	Content	suggested
Title style	`style`	Custom styling for the title.	Unknown	optional
Number of molecules	`n`	Number of molecules of the given reactant relative to the others.	Number	optional
Custom title	`title`	The title of the box; causes link to be ignored. Not required; use compound, enzyme and/or link if possible.	Content	optional

Forward minor product	`for_prod`	The forward minor product(s). Can be formatted. Example H<sub>2</sub>O	Content	optional
Reaction direction	`direction`	Either forward, reverse or reversible: the direction of reaction. Default Forward	String	optional

Compound image	`image`	An image of the compound. Required for compounds.	File	optional
Alternative content	`other_content`	If neither compound nor enzyme is specified, the content of the main part of the box. Example +	Content	optional
Reverse enzyme	`enzyme_reverse`	Equivalent to enzyme but displayed below the arrow.	Content	optional
