Metabolomics, the quantitative global analysis of endogenous metabolites
from cells, tissues, fluids and whole organisms, is becoming an
integral part of functional genomics efforts as well as a tool for
understanding fundamental biochemistry. While the genome and proteome
represent upstream biochemical events, metabolites correlate with the
most downstream biochemistry and therefore most closely represent the
phenotype. This has been proven by the broad success of metabolite
analysis in clinical diagnostics. The experimental aim in our studies is
to obtain a comprehensive quantitative view of the metabolome to expand
our understanding of what pathways are altered in specific diseases. We
have developed a novel mass spectrometry platform for metabolomics
including XCMS Online data analysis combined with METLIN, a
comprehensive MS/MS metabolite database. These technologies will be
presented in the context of their application to disease.
